This article mainly introduces how to customize the font and color of Gnome panel in linux. It is very detailed and has certain reference value. If you are interested, you must finish reading it.

1, simple way (change gnome color, use graphical interface)

First install gnome-color-chooser. Exe from the default source. Then "system-preferences-gnome-color-chooser".

When you see the tab, you know that this software can change not only the color of panel, but also all the colors of Ubuntu, including desktop icons and many other things.

Now switch to the panel tab, where you can use everything in your panel. You can change the font, font color, background and background color, and start menu. Check the normal option and select the panel font color you want. If you want to change the hover color, you can also use it.

Below the color options are font options, including font, font size, and font X Y direction position, the first two options are very straightforward, they change the font and size.

X-Padding and Y-Padding may confuse you, but they are interesting. They make your panel more beautiful by increasing the distance between icons.

2. Use commands to personalize GNOME themes

Another difficult way (not so difficult) is to change the configuration file. In the home directory, press Ctr+H to show the hidden files and find the .gtkrc-2.0 file. Open the file and insert the following line. If there is anything else in the file, just don't worry about it.

Include "/ home//.gnome2/panel-fontrc"

Don't forget to change username to your user name. When you are finished, close and save the file. Now go to .gnome2 to create a file called panel-fontrc, and paste the contents into the secondary file.

Style "my_color"

{

Fg [NORMAL] = "# FF0000"

}

Widget "* PanelWidget*" style "my_color"

Widget "* PanelApplet*" style "my_color"

This file turns the font red. If you want other colors, you need to replace the hexadecimal value (in this case, # FF0000) with the value of the color you want. To know the value of the color you want, you can use GIMP or Gcolor2 (installed in the default source) or right-click "Panel-Properties-Desktop background", then change the color you want, and then record the value, but do not change anything else in this file. Save and exit when you are finished.

Now press ALT+F2 to type

Killall gnome-panel

Force it to restart or you can log out and re-enter.
