Answer: Not in Motif 1.x.  Gadgets don't have their own colors, they use those
of their parents.  Notice that Motif's convenience dialogs generally use label
gadgets, not widgets, so you cannot customize the colors of individual
buttons.

Beginning in Motif 2.0, gadgets do have their own color resources.
