[SOLVED] Mozilla [GTK] scrollbar color problems

[DoYouKubuntu]

I KNOW I knew how to fix this...before...but can't repeat that success now. I use SeaMonkey as my browser. Its scrollbars used to be colored, as I like, to match all my other apps. Now they're not.

I vaguely remembered something about applying/un-applying the GTK theme Raleigh. I did that: Applied it, started SeaMonkey, closed SM, changed GTK theme to QtCurve, restarted SM. No go. It's still uncolored. So I applied Raleigh, started SM, closed SM, logged out, logged in, changed theme to QtCurve, started SM...still uncolored.

WTF am I missing?

I'm posting this here because it's not version dependent. At least I don't think it is.

I've no idea if this can help you, but I solved the scrollbar problem with a very nice extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/fir...oiascrollbars/
It should work on seamonkey too. I could hardly see my scrollbar, with this extension you can choose your colors, arrow points, etc.

Thanks, but no, it doesn't. I'd have to download its XPI file and tweak it and hope to get it to work with SM.

Mine's fine except for the lack of color. Right now I've changed to a different GTK theme, Gilouche, which gives me color but not the design/style I want. But it's better than no color! Here are screenshots of what I'm talking about, just in case anyone's confused:

This is from a few weeks ago, before I lost my colored scrollbar; it's QtCurve:



This is now, with an uncolored QtCurve:



This is Gilouche, the theme I'm using so I'll have color while I figure out what happened to QtCurve:

I use the littlefox add-on with firefox, and it suppresses my GTK scroll bar customization^*. Perhaps you have an add-on that has the same effect?

^* I like this so much, that I compile my own vim just to get it right

I don't think so, because I haven't added ANY add-ons for ages. I have the ones I rely on, and I just stick with them, especially since add-ons for SeaMonkey are not nearly as abundant as those for FF. If SM had more, I'd probably stop by and browse its add-ons more often, but that's not the case.

The solution was in my OP--but, for whatever reason, it didn't work and then it did. (Applying/un-applying Raleigh/QtCurve.) Go figure.
