Remove Window Gradients

Michael Hogsett-2

Hi I am new to Squeak and have been working through
several tutorials on Smalltalk and Squeak but have
not found an answer for this (I've googled for an
answer but I didn't find one for this).


I'd like to remove the right to left color to white
gradients from my windows within Squeak by default.
How do I do that?

I can see that I can remove the gradients from the
menus, but I can't find a setting in the preferences
for removing them from windows.


Thanks!

  - Mike

1. Click on the background window (world)
2. Click the 'appearance' menu
3. click 'set desktop color...'

Any color you choose (white?) will become the solid background color.

Right, I've got that.

What I am referring to is the right-to-left window color
to white gradient on things such as the preference browser,
workspace windows, etc.

For example, the right to left gradient (gray to white)
in this screen shot :

I'd like it to be solid, rather than a gradient.

Thanks!

H'mmm.

My Preferences -> Window Colors menu doesn't work, but if you execute:

Preferences installUniformWindowColors

it seems to effect new windows. I'm guessing the answer is somewhere  
in the Preferences class.
