I have a Gtk IconView. Actually, selected items are draw with a different background color (this is the normal behavior). However, I'd like to be able to distinguish between "selected" and "active" items, by using a different background color for the "active" item. How can I achieve that?
Are you using a theme? Check the panel.rc file and look for bg[ACTIVE]. Change that value and the button should change colour
