changing desktop theme color in xfce
by Skaperen from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5MAK6)
years ago i configured my desktops for all the users i use on my laptop (about 18 of them) to use the same setup. i do not remember the specifics but i do remember that i did it manually for each user through whisker settings. none of this was done through text editing. i was all done through GUI user interface, even though i am a very text editing oriented person.
last week i noticed that the color of the window decoration for one user, that i don't use so often, was slightly different. of course i want to fix this. but i have not been able to recall or find how to do this. searches are giving me instructions on how to edit theme files. these are not one user specific but affect all users the same, so i know that cannot be it. it has to be something specific for that users. comparing files between users is finding almost everything is different, so that is offering no clue.
i am currently using:
xubuntu 18.04.5
xfce 4.12.3
i originally set this up when i was using ubuntu 14.04 with xfce packages installed on it (whatever version came from the repository). i had all user home files in a separate partition and they continued to work through the upgrades and still do so today. my backups only go back about 3 months. as far as i know, i just tweaked that user wrong way back then.
anyone know where to go change this (in whisker settings), or what the terminology would be to search for it?
