    Qttabbar-white tabs in explorer dark mode-Command names black on black


    I have installed qttabbar with windows 10 (OS Build 18363.693). I'm using windows dark mode. Tabs have a white background though, and there doesn't seem to be anyway of changing it. I also have stexbar installed. The bar though has black writing on a black background. I believe both might be one cause.
    I have used the following settings: QTTabBar Options> Appearance> Toolbar> Toolbar background colour set to black. Explorer bar background etc unticked, they still show dark as I would expect with dark mode of windows.

    I've included a screenshot of what it looks like.
    Any help is appreciated,
    Many thanks.

    Hi, you may need to set the image used to render the tab:

    Try all the different Tab rendering settings, or, take a screeny of a prominent theme color and apply that as a skin.

    Thanks dalchina I have successfully applied a dark skin.
    Edwin changing only worked to apply a skin as dalchina posted.

    I still have the text of StExBar showing dark on a dark background, is there a solution for this?

    Many thanks.
