PGTK and GTK Window decoration

PGTK and GTK Window decoration

Hello,

I currently have switched to Emacs PGTK. It work very well, a big thank
you to everyone who have make it possible. :)

Now that we have a PGTK version of Emacs, do you think it's possible to
control from Emacs the colors of GTK window decorations added to each Emacs frame ?

It would be so nice to coordinate it with the applied color theme.


Best regards

Emacs doesn't use Client-Side-Decorations (thanks!) neither on the PGTK
nor any of other window systems.
GTK or any other window system doesn't control any of the window system
windows or frame decoration unless Emacs would use client side
decorations.

Thous to modify the window decorations you have to modify your window
manager.

I may be using the wrong words, but PGTK does allow window decorations 
to be changed by gnome tweak, for example, as opposed to GTK3 which 
depends on the shell that you are using. With WSL, and a rootless x 
server you get the default baked into wsl with GTK3 and themed frames 
using PGTK that can be changed with gnome tweak. But, PGTK also doesn't 
work with Windows display manager tiling (doesn't respond to snapping to 
a corner or side of the screen), so I went back to using GTK3 for that.
