Darkmode: color of cursor bar in main menu (and configuration dialog)

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Darkmode: color of cursor bar in main menu (and configuration dialog)

Post by *JOUBE »

In the darkmode the color of the cursor bar in main menu (and in the configuration dialog) is not configurable. Please add this to the ini file like the other basic elements of darkmode:

[ColorsDark]
....
DarkForeground=12345
DarkHighlight=12345
DarkBackground=12345678

You can configure it normally via Color dialog if you uncheck "use windows themed cursor".

"use windows themed cursor" is uncheck.

But I think we write about different things.

Changing the cursor bar in the "two windows side by side" is possible in the way you described. This is ok.

But I am writing about the cursor bar in MAIN menu and in Configuration Dialog. This color option is missing in the ini.

Please do not answer: comes from Windows..... This answer will not be accepted. This cursor bar is to important for a real and completely darkmode.

I see - these use the default Windows highlight color.

You will change it and make it configurable in Beta 5?

Why not? Too complicated?
