Customizing title bars with different colors per app

Customizing individual app frames with different color in same login

from Stardock Forums

I have the latest WIndowsBlinds 11 -- the only reason at this point to purchase it was to have the capability to select different colors for the multiple apps I have running on two monitors at the same time.  For example:  how can I have different title bar/frame colors for Word documents open while at the same time, File Explorer open with different color, Google Chrome with a different color, and so on?   

Is this not a capability in WindowsBlinds?  I got the impression by the short video I can modify "per application".  I've tried a few settings in the 'per application" area for WinWord.exe, Chrome, and nothing changes.

 

Detailed documentation on how to make this happen (if the capability truly exists) would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

First, do know, some application like Ms Office application, Word, Excel etc cannot be skin by Windowblinds. For most application yes you can assign different WB theme for different "XXX.exe" file. Chrome has its own skinning engine, to let WB skin it, need some special modification done.

Thanks

OK -- I'll accept that "now" -- not what I was expecting.  In addition, I've tried to apply to non-MS apps and nothing is skinning "by app.exe" .  I've tried several .exe's and nothing takes effect.  It's the same colors Windows 11 Pro was set to.

Here is what I get. Need to close and reopen those application when you have done the setting. Also, do know some universal application don't get skin properly.

Thank you,
