Where do these header titles and check ticks get there color from?
(In all skins I checked they are a variation of grey)
If there are no elements for them, can they be added?

The Tag Editor panel has 'up' and 'down' buttons.
I don't understand what their function is. You can select a tag, and then position it up or down with these buttons. But why? Also any re-ordering is not saved.
Am I missing something here?

Also, the panel has maximize and minimize buttons.
While I would love it if it was possible to increase the height of the Tag Editor panel, these buttons are probably not intended to be there.

And third, this panel, and others get a thin blue border when in focus, which dissapears when focus is lost.
That's probably a Windows 10 thing, but if possible it would be nice to get rid of that.

Don't seem to work anymore.

would you mind posting a screenshot for both of these and let me know the skin you are using as i am not sure what you mean with these

using AeroBee for demonstration:

2.5

highlight colours appear on mouse-over and selection
lowlight colours shown on Hotkeys tab

3.0

lowlight colours appear on mouse-over
highlight colours appear and persist on selection

with both versions on Hotkeys tab:
the lowlight colours persist for last selection and highlight only shows on left-click of selection

I think you're referring to the up/down arrows in the Tag Inspector as the Tag Editor arrows are left/right.
Their function, as far as I can tell, is similar to the left/right arrows in the Tag Editor.  That is to move from one tag to the next when in the Inspector.  Select a tag, click the down arrow and the selection moves down one line.

Yes you are right, I meant the Tag Editor.

If it would work as you describe, I could see some use for that.
But it currently relocates the line itself up or down.
That's probably a bug then?

You did it again.
You mean the Tag Inspector. 
(Still recovering from last night, perhaps?)

Hmmm ... I didn't even notice that behavior.  And it currently behaves like that in 2.5 also.
Yes, I would agree that the behavior is probably not what's intended and therefore a bug.

That was a change I requested a long time ago to try to deal with inconsistent order of tags with multiple values.  But it only works for one file at a time, using it on multiple files doesn't work. So it's never been add helpful as I had hoped.

i have made the combo box highlight the same as v2.5
For the hotkeys panel, in both versions the hotkeys grid (should) always lose focus to the key input box and not be active

From a skinning perspective, I always assumed 'filterpanel' was the same as the 'column browser panel', since the settings made there were reflected in the column browser.
Looking at some new elements I now understand there is actually also a panel named 'filter panel'.

I'm probably in a Homer Simpson state of mind, but where do I find this filter panel?

Bump

I am still wondering where filterpanel differs from column browser.
In what other location than the column browser panel does this have effect?

filterpanel covers both the thumb browser and column browser.
Recently i added an override just for column browser which will get used for the column browser as first preference. If its missing then filter panel is used. And if thats missing then child panel will be used
