Michael, Sorry that I used the background color directly. I just do not known jet how to use themes.
Is there a theme for displaying a warning label in a dialog? The color of the warning was inspired by the spec: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User_Experience/Projects/NonModalMessageSystem#Step_2_-_Message_Style_2a Where can I find the specs for the UI and UX for LibreOffice?
