I have had a love hate relationship with antix for years and now I’m back to loving it. I think this time it will be for good. Phew!!
I looked in the icewm preferences file which to me is long and somewhat complicated. Anyway, I need to increase the font size as well as the color of the clock in the taskbar. How do I do this. For me the clock is too small.
I’m using icewm – rox. I LOVE rox filer. I use bionicpup as well which also uses rox. My antix is a full install to a partition on my desktop computer.
Thanks so much for the help!!!😁

It depends on the theme.
You need to edit the default.theme file of the theme in /usr/share/icewm/themeseg: BlueDay-Medium (default theme)
ClockFontNameXft = “ubuntu:size=11,Sans:size=11″
ColorClock=””
ColorClockText=”#bAbAbA”- This reply was modified 3 years ago by anticapitalista. Reason: fix typos

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.
Excellent!! I will try that. Thanks so much!!! 😁

Or maybe a better way.
Create a file called prefoverride in ~/.icewm
Add theses lines – my examples
ClockFontNameXft = “ubuntu:size=14,Sans:size=14″
ColorClockText=”#DF5050”Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.
That’s an excellent idea!! I tried to change the color using the original method you suggested but it didn’t work. I restarted icewm as well.
Another thing I need to know is how to increase the taskbar height. I read something about modifying the linux.xpm file. I’m totally lost here. Can i include your solution in the prefoverride file you suggested? This file sounds like I can add my icewm tweak settings in there?
I attached three files that might help you out with what I did.

Seems like prefoverride isn’t working as it should.
You’ll have to edit the themes file I mentioned before.You can copy /usr/share/icewm/themes to ~/.icewm if you want

OK. Thanks.

However, before that, try another font in prefoverride
eg
ClockFontNameXft = sans:size=14
