Hi,
I'm sure this info can be found somewhere on this forum, but the threads I viewed didn't give me the exact info I wanted. I just want to port my Thunar background colors from Thunar GTK2 to Thunar GTK3.
This is what my gtkrc in TraditionalOk (a MATE theme) looks like:
# My own Thunar background color
style "my-thunar-colours"
{
base[NORMAL] = "#F2EEE4"
}
widget_class "*ThunarShortcutsView*" style "my-thunar-colours"
widget_class "*ThunarTreeView*" style "my-thunar-colours"
widget_class "*ThunarIconView*" style "my-thunar-colours"
So how would I achieve the same result in Thunar GTK3 with gtk.css file?

Hello and welcome.
Looks like you're trying to affect the thunar window background. Try this in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css:
.thunar .view { background-color: #F2EEE4; }

As long as this topic is up, what would one put to only change
1) the main field
2) the pane

Is this what you mean?
.thunar .sidebar { background-color: red; }
.thunar .standard-view .view { background-color: blue; }

Hi,
Sorry but it doesn't work on my system...

Hi,
Sorry but it doesn't work on my system...
Are you running a Gtk3-version of thunar:
thunar -V
Did you stop the thunar daemon (and or log out and back in again to test)?
Can you post back the contents of your ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css file?

Yes I do on Archlinux up to date :
thunar -V
Thunar 1.8.9 (Xfce 4.14)
~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css :
* {
-XfcePanelWindow-popup-delay: 700;
-XfcePanelWindow-popdown-delay: 100;
-XfcePanelWindow-autohide-size: 0;
}
XfdesktopIconView.view {
-XfdesktopIconView-label-alpha:0;
-XfdesktopIconView-selected-label-alpha:0;
-XfdesktopIconView-ellipsize-icon-labels:0;
-XfdesktopIconView-tooltip-size:128;
-XfdesktopIconView-cell-spacing:-5;
-XfdesktopIconView-cell-padding:25;
-XfdesktopIconView-cell-text-width-proportion:3.3;
}
XfdesktopIconView.view {
border-radius: 2px;
background: transparent;
color: #444755;
text-shadow: none;
}
XfdesktopIconView.label:active, XfdesktopIconView.label:checked {
background-color: transparent;
color: #8BAEE8;
text-shadow: none;
}
.thunar .sidebar { background-color: #5d6571; }
.thunar .standard-view .view { background-color: blue; }
Thank you.

Hmm. That gtk.css file works on my arch box.
Try killing the thunar daemon:
thunar -q
...then starting thunar up again:
thunar

Suddenly it's working now without killing thunar... Strange because even after some reboot it didn't !
Thanks ToZ !
Edit : But I needed to change :
.thunar .sidebar .view { background-color: grey; }
Instead of :
.thunar .sidebar { background-color: grey; }

As @sushi found, try:
.thunar .sidebar .view { background-color: red; }
.thunar .standard-view .view { background-color: blue; }
I must have mistyped something.

Which debian version?
Which version of Thunar?
Which appearance theme are you using?

... ASOMBROSO, por fin lo he conseguido; es una de las cosas que siempre he personalizado en la caja/mate. Ya hice el otro ajuste para buscar archivos con "catfish" en acciones personalizas. Ahora todo irá perfecto GRACIAS!

@ToZ, I know this is an old topic, but can you also tell how to change the colors of the navigation bar, address bar and status bar in Thunar?
Thanks

@ToZ, thanks, works like a charm. Last question: between the sidebar, main view, toolbar and status bar is a white grid/border line. Do you know how to change its color?
Regards

.thunar scrolledwindow { border-width: 0 }
This should get everything but the resize separator between the sidebar and the main view. I can't seem to find a way to affect it.

Sorry to revive this old post as well but I noticed something that I do not think was mentioned.
-Thunar 4.18.7
-Using Details View
-Also, shouldn't matter but using a dark theme.
When I tried the css items mentioned to change Thunar file pane background color and side bar background color from dark grays to black, I noticed some other items then have no color.
-file pane highlight selector
-"rubberband" selection background no color (I think was only an outline)
-rubberband selection of folders/files no selection color
Only thing I could see in file pane was an outline (horizontal lines) selector when you use up / down arrows
Fonts appear fine white text
Does anyone else experience this?
Does anyone know how to fix this.
I have seen other posts mention colors for other css items such as
.thunar .view:selected
.thunar .view .rubberband {background: rgba(0,0,0,0.1)}
but this doesn't make sense because the background color shouldn't be behind everything else, so I don't think that it is "on top" so shouldn't have any affect on those items colors
Thank you any help provided

Assuming you are using this snippet from above:
/* sidebar */
.thunar .sidebar .view { background-color: red; }
/* main view */
.thunar .standard-view .view { background-color: blue; }
/* status bar */
.thunar grid paned grid { background-color: yellow;}
/* toolbar */
.thunar toolbar, .thunar toolbar entry { background-color: green; }
-file pane highlight selector
Use the ":selected" pseudo type:
.thunar .standard-view .view:selected {background-color: yellow}
-"rubberband" selection background no color (I think was only an outline)
-rubberband selection of folders/files no selection color
It should use the :selected" color from above
