Exclude programs, dark backgrounds remain

from WinCustomize Forums

Hello, first time poster here. Have been using Fences for years, decided to try Blinds.

Using Stardock WindowBlinds10 Trial on Win10.
Trying to exclude SourceTree because of unreadable field with a non-default dark theme ( Night Shine ).
Have added SourceTree.exe to Settings->Per Application.
Then tried excluding Notepad.exe, again the text field does not go back to default.

Is there something I am missing here?

Have you tried other Windowblinds skins to see if the problem persists?

Ok, it works correctly with default skins.

Are the purchasable 'Master Skins' tested for this kind of thing? I wouldn't mind paying for a functioning dark theme.

Oh, wait... all the default skins have white backgrounds for the fields, so I can't really tell if the change to background is happening or not...

Hello,

I believe, if you have apply a theme which change the Windows System colors, usually dark theme skin, it will effect the whole windows colors. So, even you exclude curtain application in Windowblinds. It will still use that changed Windows colors for that excluded applications.

Thank you,

I see, thank you. I will attempt to tweak the text colors to get things visible. ( It would be really nice to have a live preview when modifying the color settings... )
