Select “Show accent color on the following surfaces” and tick one of the following or both – “Start, taskbar, and action center” or “Title bars and window borders”.
Select surfaces to show the accent color on. To set a different color, click “Custom color”.Ĭlicking “Automatically pick an accent color from my background” allows Windows to select a suitable color based on your wallpaper. Choose color among suggested by clicking under “Recent colors” or “Windows colors”. There are four options to select it manually. The “Light” mode does not support the taskbar color change – any chosen color will appear grey.Īccent color applies to the “Start” button, taskbar, action center, title bars, and window borders. The “Custom” option provides a combination of any wallpaper and accent color.
“Dark” does the job in darker settings, making buttons and apps black/dark grey. “Light” mode is basically a standard theme and is best suited for bright spaces, setting a white color for the start button, taskbar, action center, and most apps. Windows 10 offers “Light”, “Dark” and “Custom” color modes.
Nearly all of the modern Windows icons feature such a style (simple and white, yielding good readability on the black taskbar). Specific problem: When you have a desktop application with a system tray icon, chances are high that you designed it to be bright. I was wondering if there is an API or hook to elegantly and (more importantly) efficiently check live for theme changes (Did not find anything in the MS docs regarding this, but often enough these gems are pretty hidden there IMHO). With newer versions, you can choose a 'light' theme as an alternative to the default black theme.
As yolu may have noticed, MS introduced a modern kind of 'theming' in Windows 10 regarding the basic OS elements like start menu and taskbar.
