you can use gdk_color_parse http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gdk/gdk-Colormaps-and-Colors.html#gdk-color-parse and then gtk_widget_modify_fg on the label http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkWidget.html#gtk-widget-modify-fg hope it helps cheers -- Gian Mario Tagliaretti PyGTK GUI programming http://www.parafernalia.org/pygtk/ _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
