LM 19 xfce 32 bit whisker menu changing of colours impossible

In LM 18.3 xfce 32 bit  there was a way to change the colours of whisker menu via .gtkrc-2.0 .

Installing LM 19 i modified the .gtkrc-2.0 in the same way, but there was no change of colours at all.

Does anyone know, why this is now  impossible ?

This is my  .gtkrc-2.0 :

include ".gtkrc-xfce"
    style "darkback"
{
bg[NORMAL] = "#030303"
bg[ACTIVE] = "#004f9f"
bg[PRELIGHT] = "#198cff"
fg[NORMAL] = "#ccc"
fg[ACTIVE] = "#fff"
fg[PRELIGHT] = "#fff"
}
widget "whiskermenu-window*" style "darkback"
style "darktree"
{
base[NORMAL] = "#404040"
base[ACTIVE] = "#004f9f"
text[NORMAL] = "#ccc"
text[ACTIVE] = "#fff"
}
widget "whiskermenu-window*TreeView*" style "darktree"
style "darksearch"
{
base[NORMAL] = "#404040"
text[NORMAL] = "#ccc"
}
widget "whiskermenu-window*GtkEntry*" style "darksearch"

style "xfdesktop-icon-view" {

   XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 0
   XfdesktopIconView::shadow-x-offset = 1
   XfdesktopIconView::shadow-y-offset = 1
   XfdesktopIconView::shadow-color = "#000000"
   XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-x-offset = 1
   XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-y-offset = 1
   XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-color = "#000000"
   XfdesktopIconView::ellipsize-icon-labels = 1     
        XfdesktopIconView::cell-text-width-proportion = 2.5   
   
   fg[NORMAL] = "#6AB2D9"   # color of desktop icon text (light blue)
   fg[SELECTED] = "#ffffff"  # color of desktop icon text when clicked (white)
   
   font_name = "Arial"   # desktop icon font

}

widget_class "*XfdesktopIconView*" style "xfdesktop-icon-view"

Hello and welcome.

It looks like Mint 19 has the GTK3 version of the whisker menu. Have a read through this post for information on how to theme it.

Just happened to be looking around and found this.
Thanks Toz,  much appreciated as I had tried theming in the theme itself, my  modified Arc theme.
