Hi,
Specifically for the menu item colour I am thinking about making the system extension colour list, that is already used in GSToolbarView an official GNUstep mechanism, move the code over to NSColor and to add all the other colour definitions we have scattered in GNUstep gui (I think NSTableView uses some, hints to other places are welcome). That way a theme would just need to override one extra colour list. Is this a feasible approach for you? Or do you see a reason to do things differently?
Having a separate color for the "menu bar" and for the menus themselves would help also in making a better Windows theme, since WinXP and Vista have separate colors for that. Thank you.
As for GSTaskBar I already replied on the discussion list. What I would like to know about the implementation is what change will be required in NSApplication and NSWindow. We should try to come up with a generic way to handle application icons here, so that we don't need to change our gui code the next time somebody comes up with an idea for a task bar tool.
I miss to understand what's really about too. Riccardo
