Also, consider setting colours via a grkrc file rather than in your
code. As Viraj says, make an event box, set a name for it with
gtk_widget_set_name() (maybe "status_bar"?), then in a gtkrc for your
application have something like:
style "red_style" = "default"
{
bg[NORMAL] = "#C1665A"
bg[PRELIGHT] = "#E0B6AF"
bg[ACTIVE] = "#C1665A"
bg[SELECTED] = "#C1665A"
bg[INSENSITIVE] = "#884631"
}
widget "*status_bar" style "red_style"
Easier to program, and easier for other people to change if they don't like red.
