P.S.: Alternatively, you can check Firefox codebase as they seem to get windows system colors right (but I guess the method might be the same in the end Smile

Probably yes, the method in FF must be similar: In fact, their colors are close but not exact match to those in Windows dark theme. FF does not seem to pick Windows accent color, but uses the default blue for the related items instead. (Tried Orange bright accent color to easily see where it is used.)

I'm now on Windows 10 and the default dark theme behavior in UWord is here much better than it is on Windows 11.

BTW, in U++: Which SColor(s) are used for:
- main menu bar background
- tool bar background
- status bar background
- scroll bar background?

I cannot seem to find which one to change...

Best regards,

Tom


A lot of them is image inversion unfortunately... (theming API gives me only light appearance, so I invert it to dark).
