Re: Question about CellRendererText foreground font color change...

["R. Douglas Barbieri" <dooglio gmail com>]

By the way, I found the bug listing for this particular bug:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2572
(you have to be logged in, though)

Someone posted an excellent patch to the gtk-qt theme:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=3513

Anyway, the above patch fixes the qt rendering engine and colors show
up correctly. :-) Just FYI.
