I don't have the (GTK2) gtk-qt-engine package installed because I always had problems with those engine packages. That said, I'll have to test the package.Looks like installing that package makes no difference. Still scratching my head.Seems to me the TDE notification popup is generic. For me, a grey box with black text. I haven't found any way to modify the look of the popup.
Oh,Many many years ago, I set the generic popup tooltips to be on a light background with dark text to work with my dark kde3/tde theme. If I'm recalling correctly, the generic popups are actually controlled by .gtkrc-2.0 (and the two variants created by the gtk/kde engine tools: .gtkrc-2.0.mine and .gtk-2.0-kde) The setting related to the generic popups is, e.g.
style "user-font"
{
font_name="Tahoma 8"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
style "gnome-color-chooser-tooltips"
{
bg[NORMAL] = "#FFFFDC"
fg[NORMAL] = "#000000"
}
widget "gtk-tooltip*" style "gnome-color-chooser-tooltips"
And... years ago, I went though the gtk+2 config hierarchy and simply
rewrote my .gtkrc-2.0 to contain what I wanted -- and haven't had to change it
since. What I have now includes the .gtkrc-2.0.mine but it simply contains the
same tooltips config. For what it is worth, this is what I've used for eons:
$ cat .gtkrc-2.0
# this file created by dcr
include "/usr/share/themes/LaGaDesk-BlueNight-II-GTK/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
include "/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
include "/home/david/.gtkrc-2.0.mine"
style "user-font"
{
font_name="Tahoma 8"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
style "gnome-color-chooser-tooltips"
{
bg[NORMAL] = "#FFFFDC"
fg[NORMAL] = "#000000"
}
widget "gtk-tooltip*" style "gnome-color-chooser-tooltips"
gtk-theme-name="LaGaDesk-BlueNight-II-GTK"
gtk-icon-theme-name="hicolor"
gtk-font-name="Tahoma 8"
gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH_HORIZ
gtk-toolbar-icon-size=GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR
gtk-button-images=1
gtk-menu-images=1
gtk-enable-event-sounds=1
gtk-enable-input-feedback-sounds=1
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle="hintfull"
gtk-xft-rgba="rgb"
When you use the gtk-qt-engine, check for the config files in your home
directory. Just open them all in kate and tweak to your liking. If I'm
remembering incorrectly -- well senility must be setting in with old age :)
