Re: Changing a style property?

[Micah Carrick <email micahcarrick com>]

You may want to look over the documentation of GtkRcStyle, resource 
files (.rc files for themes).

The "style" property of a widget is a GtkStyle object. There is no 
"shadow-type" property of a widget.

These are typically not used by the developer. We leave this stuff up to 
the theme. If we want a specific look (such as a touchscreen 
application) then we just write our own theme or resource file.
