Someone plz smack me ;) In KDE Control Center/Style, Plastik is used in SuSE 9.1 Personal while Thin Keramik is used in Pro. Plastik uses a stripe which is the same color as the menu itself while Thin Keramik uses a grey one. KDE Control Center/Style - Style Tab Under Widget Style, Thin Keramik is selected on a default Pro install Click Configure "Menu Options 1" tab, check "use custom colors" Make the "Stripe" the same color as the "Background" Or Use the Plastik style ;) Thanks for everyone's help Keith -----Original Message----- From: burgeke@HQ.VerizonWireless.com [mailto:burgeke@HQ.VerizonWireless.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2004 9:37 AM To: suse-kde@suse.com Subject: [suse-kde] Menu icons - background grey, disable? In SuSE 9.1 Pro, all of the menus, including the main kicker menu has a grey thin strip going up the left hand side where the icons are. Its kidof a background for the icons. In SuSE 9.1 Personal, this background is the same color as the menus (white) so in effect, no background. I have searched high and low and googled for an answer on how to make the Pro menus look like the Personal ones (i.e. no grey background) to no avail. The interesting part is that the root user, under Personal, has menus with the grey strip background. Only thing I can see is that there are a couple specific files for root in /opt/kde3/share/config/SuSE/default (i.e. kickerrc.root) but I mirrored these settings in my ~/.kde/share/config with no difference. Any help would be appreciated. KDE 3.2.1 BTW Thanks, Keith
