Sounds like you're trying to retrieve the default colors before the widget
has been realized. Consider this (mind you this uses pygtk):
#!/usr/bin/env python
import gtk
def main():
window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
window.connect("delete-event", lambda *x: gtk.main_quit())
tv = gtk.TreeView()
tv.set_size_request(400, 250)
def realize(tv): print tv.get_style().bg[gtk.STATE_ACTIVE]
tv.connect("realize", realize)
realize(tv)
window.add(tv)
window.show_all()
gtk.main()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
The output of this example on my machine is
#dcdad5
#f0f0f0
which just goes to show that the colors before and after realization
(might) differ.
