I'm trying to change the color of what I think is the active tab close button (which looks like an X.)  I have the tabs bar shown below the caption bar, but I guess if I'm changing it here, I should change it everywhere.  Initially I only wanted to change the 'hover-over' color, but now I'd like to at least play around with the non-hover  color.  I have tested with just about every element I can find with TabsBar or CloseButton and have not been successful.  I'm now thinking that this may be system generated.  If so, then I'll live with it.  If not, can someone please tell me what the elements are?

Thanks.

  • MB Version: 3.6.8878 P
Used to be controlled by
<element id="TabsBar.TabCloseButton.Default" fg="xxx,xxx,xxx" />  and
<element id="TabsBar.TabCloseButton.Highlight" bg="xxx,xxx,xxx" fg="xxx,xxx,xxx" bdr="xxx,xxx,xxx" />

but these overrides no longer work in MB3.

fg from appropriate highlight tab
eg. <element id="TabsBar.Tab.Highlight" bg="xxx,xxx,xxx" fg="xxx,xxx,xxx" bdr="xxx,xxx,xxx"  />
is used as 'hover-over' colour
normal (default) colour is auto-generated from it.

Well that explains why I could see any change when I edited them.

Yep, that's the current behavior.  I'll make due with the way it now stands.

Thanks.
