Title: I can't read buttons text
Post by: Pepetops on June 24, 2024, 09:47:18

Hi everybody
I don't know how to change buttons colors because now I can't read anything when, for example, I copy/move files...
I add an image
Best regards

Don't know why it looks like that for you.
The checkboxes are also in a none standard color.

Are you running some 3rd party Theme changer in Windows ?

How does it look if DarkMode in MC is not enabled ?

Hi
Thank you for answering so quickly. Attached photo in No_Dark mode
And YES, I use UltraUXThemePatcher... Is this the problem, you think?
Best Regards

I think the ThemePatcher is the issue, When using dark theme in MC, Theme Patcher is overwriting some of the drawing and draws buttons that are not darkmode..
Might work if you configure ThemePatcher to draw in dark mode too. (If that is possible, not sure how configurable Themepatcher is)

From my experience, Dark Themes always have glitches (because Windows was never meant to be dark themed.) I suggest you get Stardock WindowBlinds 10 (which is a better desktop enhancement than UXThemes.) I've used various UXThemes, HighContrast themes, & even WindowBlinds 10 skins sometimes don't theme well when you get dark ones (waste of my space really.) Right now I'am using "Digital Tech SP" skin by "Vad_M" it's pale blue but you can change the colorscheme to Pink via Modify Style & that looks certainly darker (it's the most stable skin really.) I had a prob /w before, my QuickDict input bar text being black-on-black, & my Spotify input bar being invisible due to the same reasons. Stardock WindowBlinds 10 is a commercial app unfortunately, but that's the only way to get a dark theme. If you manage to get your hands on WindowBlinds 10, you can find the skin for free on WinCustomize.com ! I've also customized my font on my system via WindowBlinds 10 & on MultiCommander to use the "Kdam Thmor Pro" (free Google font), it looks great (just throwing that in here too.) Hope it helps !
