17751N/AThe GNOME appearance preference tool enables you to select how your GNOME
17751N/Adesktop is themed. The theme controls the appearance of GNOME-compliant
11904N/Aapplication interface items. For example, the theme affects the appearance of
11904N/Abuttons, scrollbar, check boxes, and so on. This preference tool can also be
17751N/Aused to configure the background image, fonts used by the desktop, how
17751N/Amenus and toolbars behave, and what visual effects are used.
