Put your gtk_label in an eventbox and then change the background of the eventbox.
Look at:
3.1. How do I change the color of a widget? in the Common queries at the GTK+ web site.
Do you mean www.gtk.org FAQ chapter 6.1 ? I don't see anything called 'Common queries'...
-vcI can't just put the label in an eventbox. The label is a part of the GtkStatusbar.
So I can't see how I can put it in an eventbox - unless I should put the entire GtkStatusbar in an eventbox?
