Different theme for the panel

Hello.

Is it possible to set different theme for the panel than for other applications? And if it's possible, how to accomplish that?

I've tried that, but it doesn't really work. Theme doesn't change, or is changed only partially.

Re: Different theme for the panel

Did you install the Mist engine/theme?(apt install gtk2-engines)

Yes, it is installed. I've also tried other themes, which come with Xfce. The only thing that I see being changed is font color.

I've also tried setting GTK2_RC_FILES for other applications, some aren't affected at all (Thunar), other are only partially affected (xfce4-about, only scrollbar style is changed).
