How can I get Colors of current GTK theme?

[ondoho]

thanks!

(using pygtk and package)

afaiu pygtk is python2 and works only with gtk2.
if you look at post #1, that's what i used to implement the gtk2 solution.

for gtk3, this:

http://python.6.x6.nabble.com/GTK3-get-b...03859.html

is a little closer to what I want.

i can now get some information about gtk colors without showing a window:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import gi
gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0')
from gi.repository import Gtk

def on_button_clicked(button, tv):
    style = tv.get_style_context()
    bgcolor = style.get_background_color(Gtk.StateType.NORMAL) 
    print(bgcolor) 

win = Gtk.Window()
vb = Gtk.VBox()
tv = Gtk.TextView()
vb.add(tv)
win.show_all()
style = tv.get_style_context()
bgcolor = style.get_background_color(Gtk.StateType.NORMAL) 
print(bgcolor)
#settings = Gtk.Settings.get_default()
#for i in settings.list_properties():
#    print(i)

this will give me reasonable color values:

Output:
Gdk.RGBA(red=0.866667, green=0.866667, blue=0.866667, alpha=1.000000)

halfway there.

if i uncomment the last 3 lines i also get a long list of gtk3 properties; but i
- don't know how to get at the values
- don't know if they're even filled with current values.

any help appreciated.
