How to change the font of the Whisker Menu Title
#1
I've discovered this accidentally. You can change the title if you use the pango markup language.
Right-click on the Menu then Properties.

When the whisker menu dialog  opens change the title to this:
Code:
<span foreground="black" size="large">Menu</span>
foreground defines the font color
You can set your own font color. For example red, green, #fff, #fcfc02...
size defines the font size, some of them are 'xx-small', 'x-small', 'small', 'medium', 'large', 'x-large', 'xx-large'

Cheers bits
I've contacted the developer and he will not be adding options to control the pango markup.
Every option adds more complexity, and he has to determine what he feels is appropriate to maintain.
I don't mind that. In the future he's adding transparency to the menu. That's going to be so cool. Smile

Hello misko,
I have just used your tutorial, I used gimp color picker to find the hex for the icon colour then used that as the menu foreground colour, added weight as heavy, and size medium.
It looks very nice, Thank You  Smile
