I don't follow your proposed solution. I went to the file that you quoted and I don't understand what you want the OP to do. Perhaps the OP does but I am a little slow. Anyway you want him (or her) to change something when it says
# lxpanel <profile> config file. Manually editing is not recommended? Am I in the wrong file?

In right file you are. Manually editing not recommended, but as the second line states, use preference dialog in lxpanel to adjust config when you can. To change this there is only manual way, or even more manual - actually I had to download LXPanel source to find the solution :geek:

Maybe I should have bold it, so again. Adding that "tintcolor" line after link to menubutton image does the trick. By default it doesn't exist, and highlight uses default color which is (surprise) blue.
Plugin {
type = menu
Config {
image=/usr/share/lubuntu/images/lubuntu-logo.png
tintcolor=#ff0000 (red in this case)
system {

No problem. If not OP maybe someone else finds this usefull. Found this thread by Google anyway.

Thanks for replys, Rex. Not really helping but made a nice landing on the new board:) I think that I could spend more time at here, refresh my poor euro-english, and help some newbies (and why not advanced ones too) in problems. Just love LXDE, kind of Openbox ˆ2.
