Menu bar color / dark mode

Post by Emre »

Hello,
As I remember from the old dark mode discussions, XYplorer admin stated that it was not currently possible to change menu bar color in dark mode, as it was controlled by windows OS theme settings ( I guess). So our dark mode was not truly a dark mode. This was curious because similar products did not have similar issues, but this is just a nuisance that can be ignored besides the feature set. Then they kindly introduced buttons to hide/show menu bar, and also menu bar state for the main toolbar. I always thought they were some kind of workarounds for the menu bar color issue.
And this is how my xyplorer looks if I show the system menu bar:

Today when I was checking "what's new" page, I saw these screenshots, how are these possible within XYplorer, did I miss a feature? Is this an artificial menu bar? If so how can we make a second toolbar there? Also these dark mode colors look awesome how can I achieve it?

Click on the three vertical stripes left of your blue back button in the toolbar...
