Trivial thought - I was using the demo launcher program to quickly browse how the widgets look under the different schemes:

demo -s [gtk+ | plastic]

But... A few of the test apps have the scheme hard-coded, so they do not honour the command line/environment setting that they inherit from the demo launcher.

I wonder if they ought to be "adjusted" so that they do, so newcomers can quickly see how the widgets look under each style?

In short, input_choice is hard-coded to plastic (as is blocks, but that's more of a complete app than a simple demo...)

I *suppose* all the apps really ought to call Fl::scheme(NULL); so they pick up the setting - but I guess that's the default behaviour anyway?

Oops, that input_choice demo having "plastic" set is my fault; when I submitted Fl_Input_Choice as a core widget, I included that test program as part of the patch submission, but I guess I forgot to remove the scheme setting.

Core folks: feel free to rip that line out ;)

Good point. I'll see if there is some nice way to set the scheme only if there is none set by the user.

Ya, I think my demo program also doesn't call show(argc,argv);, though it probably should, as that would handle the FLTK style command line options like "-scheme <name>" (according to what I see in Fl_arg.cxx)

I've done one better - all of the demo programs now use the scheme and the demo program itself provides a chooser for the scheme.
