secipolla, thank you for your reply. I've already tried this, but I prefer the analog clock...

Clio, it works exactly as intended. thanks a million !

Put this in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0

style "panel"
{
    fg[NORMAL] = "#CED8EB"
}

widget_class "*Panel*"      style "panel"
widget "*Panel*"            style "panel"
class "*Panel*"             style "panel"

I don't use the clock plugin and I know it isn't the same thing but I use the date/time plugin and the font colour for it is set by the GTK theme.

I'm using Xfce 4.8, and the analog and LCD clocks are both black, which cannot be changed. (I know there is a workaround for the digital clock.)
This is really annoying when displaying an analog or LCD clock on a dark panel (I prefer a flat black panel).
Will this option be made available in a later version of Xfce ?
