Thanks for trying. :)
The panel tint color is in the Appearance -> Advanced dialog and is
related to the transparency settings.
Background images may be used in the panel.
None of these settings are related to the menu color. The best I can
tell, the menu color is controlled in Appearance & Themes -> Colors ->
Widget Color -> Window Background. The caveat is this option seems to be
a sledge hammer all-or-nothing kitchen sink approach.
Obtaining a dark panel is straight forward using different methods but
not the menu color. I don't want any dark themes because that affects
the window background color in everything. I only want a dark panel and
dark menu like I configured in KDE. Possibly the configuration in the
newer KDE and older TDE are similar but the different dialog layouts are
confusing me. Possibly what I want is not configurable in TDE.
Yep, we tried.
This may be worth a feature-request. For somebody who knows how the
desktop painting code works, it shouldn't be hard to hook the menu
display and provide a separate foreground/background color selection
option. I've always had difficulty tracing where the separate elements
get drawn through the code.
I agree with you, that the menu background is likely just the normal
desktop appearance background color. The guesses I had were from looking
though the config files at where the various menu elements were set.
There is very little that distinguishes the kicker taskbar/panel
settings from kmenu itself.
If you find anything in a stroke of brilliance, let us know.
