Re: dark theme
Another small glitch: turn Dark mode on and off, and I can see those leftovers. The "Dark border (1 px)" disappears.

Re: dark theme
admin,
This may be an obvious question, but should title bar & menu bar be white like this?

Re: dark theme
Windows controls these colors. Can't do anything.
(AFAIK. You never know what you can do in the future...)

Are you saying that all windows apart from XYplorer are black now?

Re: dark theme
No, not at all.
Current state in Windows 10 1809 is:
- There is a setting to choose between light and dark theme (Settings → Personalization → Colors → Choose your default app mode)
- Windows Explorer honor this setting.
- Most UWP apps honor this setting.
- But controls (menus, buttons...) on Win32 apps are not affected by this setting.

Re: dark theme
"Panes, Sync Select..." doesn't look right in dark mode. Black labels next to the checkboxes, on a dark gray background?
I haven't checked every dialog in the application. Maybe there are other places with the same problem.

Re: dark theme
In Dark mode, the Tree has a bright white border all around it, while the Catalog (and pretty much everything else) has a subtle gray border. Why the inconsistency?
I don't see this problem with a fresh XYplorer, but I do see it with a very slightly customized one. I'm not yet sure which setting is responsible for the bright white border that is visible only around the Tree.

Re: dark theme
For which of the 2 issues, the Dual Pane Select dialog, or the Tree border?
By the way, I've found that I can reproduce the bright white border issue in a fresh XYplorer. All I need to do is enable Windows Theme Style for borders, and then toggle dark mode on and off a few times. Then I see the bright white border.
