Is there a way to define different text colors for different desktops?
Trinity 3.5.12 on Squeeze.
Thanks!

No, but you can define different background colors or wallpapers. That should be enough
for what I assume to be your purpose. No?

On KDE 3.x all I do is right click on the desktop, go to configure
desktop, then to in the background section look to the right and click
on advanced.

And can you then set each desktop to have a different colour of text? If so,
could you possibly elaborate on exactly what you do after you click on
advanced? I can only set the one font colour for the system, not a different
font colour for each of the desktops.
I rather think that this is the time for a wish bug, but I was just making
sure that I hadn't missed anything.
Thanks,

Someone partially sighted...
I put on my thinking cap and had this very simple idea: you could make custom wallpapers
with nothing but solid color and a number somewhere on the image: center, corner, you
decide. So Desktop 1 would use Wallpaper-1.jpg with a very visible "1" somewhere
in the image, Desktop 2 would use Wallpaper-2.jpg with a very visible "2" and so
on.
It's the only other idea I've had so far.

Thanks Luciano for your reply, but sadly it isn't what I am after!! The text
in question is the text under the icons. The desktops all have different
backgrounds, which is enough differentiation. But different backgrounds need
different text colours.

why not just create 4 dummy users, which each ones background/text
colour setup to what you like to be checked ?

Hi,
the problem is the following:
if you define a dark desktop, you need a light text color to see the
text and vice versa. So, if you define several desktops they must have a
similar backgrounds to see the text.
What Lisi an I have found out so far is: there is only ONE text color
for all desktops.
