建立 ~/.gtkrc-2.0 檔案，若不存在則新增，並放入下列程式碼：

style "desktop-icon"
{
 NautilusIconContainer::frame_text = X
 text[NORMAL] = "#YYYYYY"
 NautilusIconContainer::normal_alpha = Z 
}
class "GtkWidget" style "desktop-icon"

其中，X 為 True/False 值，#YYYYYY 為 HTML 的色碼，Z 為文字的背景透明度，0~255，255 代表全白。

style "desktop-icon"
{
 NautilusIconContainer::normal_alpha = 0
 text[NORMAL] = "#000000"
 NautilusIconContainer::frame_text = 1
}
class "GtkWidget" style "desktop-icon"

style "desktop-icon"
{
NautilusIconContainer::normal_alpha = 0
text[NORMAL] = "darkblue"
NautilusIconContainer::frame_text = 70
}
widget_class "*DesktopIcon*" style "desktop-icon"     #只針對桌面圖示
#class "GtkWidget" style "desktop-icon"
