Which file (.xpm) modify for the title background ?

Goog Moorning|x|evening,

Anyone tried to change the title background color  in  a .xpm file : /usr/share/themes/your theme/xfwm4  ?

A command with this function is not present in the file themerc , if you have a command to do that in this file or in a .xpm file ,  it could be useful

xpms are text files so you can edit them with any text editor --> replace stuff with Sed/Awk

Re: Which file (.xpm) modify for the title background ?

Thanks @sixsixfive .

i modified the title background color but in your link ,there is no information about the others lines in the file .

For exemple , here the file : "title-1-active.xpm"

/* XPM */
static char * title_1_active_xpm[] = {
"5 24 4 1",
" 	c None",
".	c #1F252B",
"+	c #000000",
"@	c #334C62",
".....",
"+++++",

"+++++",
"@@@@@"};

I know that this line :

"+	c #000000",

is the title background color but for the others , i have no idea !

Anyway, if someone can link me for a complete description of the others lines and their functions in the window that would be great
