Description Johannes Dahl 2008-03-07 13:49:21 UTC 
As many GTK programs display links, I think it would improve the usability of the whole desktop if it was possible to change the colour of them. The actual problem I am facing is that blue links are almost unreadable with my colour theme (it's mostly dark grey).

Other information:

Agree, blue links with dark themes are very hard to read, but as far as I know link colour is already themeable, at least in GtkLinkButton[1] (refer to set_link_color function).

Comment 2 Jens Granseuer 2008-03-07 17:13:16 UTC 
Right. Please complain to your friendly theme designer.
Comment 3 Johannes Dahl 2008-03-08 09:24:10 UTC 
For sake of the argument, lets say that I could complain to my friendly theme designer. But then, what's Customise Theme in Appearance Preferences for? I really think that link colours should be editable from there. Reopening.
