Desktop Icons

[JmaCWQ]

Thank you rijnsma,
For the transparency with the Desktop icon text that works perfectly.
I did try other themes from the repo's before asking but none of them seemed to make any difference to that, even after loggin out and back in after each theme change.
None of the themes appear to turn off the grid the icons align to either.

Just a little extra info for anyone who's not sure, on LL 2.0 the ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file is hidden in your home folder.
Leave a single line free under whatever is in that file, then paste in the following:

Code:

style "xfdesktop-icon-view" {
    XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 0
    XfdesktopIconView::selected-label-alpha = 170
    XfdesktopIconVIew::ellipsize-icon-labels = 1

    XfdesktopIconView::shadow-x-offset = 0
    XfdesktopIconView::shadow-y-offset = 0
    XfdesktopIconView::shadow-color = "#000000"
    XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-x-offset = 0
    XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-y-offset = 0
    XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-color = "#ffffff"

    XfdesktopIconVIew::cell-spacing = 6
    XfdesktopIconView::cell-padding = 6
    XfdesktopIconView::cell-text-width-proportion = 2.5

    base[NORMAL] = "#cccccc"
    base[SELECTED] = "#cccccc"
    base[ACTIVE] = "#cccccc"

    fg[NORMAL] = "#ffffff"
    fg[SELECTED] = "#000000"
    fg[ACTIVE] = "#000000"
}
widget_class "*XfdesktopIconView*" style "xfdesktop-icon-view"

Save and close the file, log out and back in again.
