I found out that Windows color accents can be read from the following registry key, maybe MusicBee could take advantage of these values?

Code
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Accent

I was wondering what skin elements to edit for the playlist header bar?

As for requests, it would be helpful to have an override for the status bar if player controls are docked in the top panel.

You should be able to find that with the help of: Sample Skin

I think it's using bg and fg of MusicExplorerHeader element.

@Steven;

Can you support an override for that including bg2 for the gradient? Also support bg2 for MusicExplorerHeader element too.

- Image overrides for "UnknownAlbum" and "UnknownGenre"
- Unknown album its already there as: "NoArtwork"
- I have added "UnknownGenre" for the next update. I recommend 128px for the 100%dpi image

- Image overrides for "UnknownAlbum" ...

I meant the record image that thumbnail browser shows for "All Albums" item when "Album" is selected.

Yes this does seem to be the case, except when auto-pick panel colors is enabled then it goes by that instead.

looking at the code, its always been hardcoded to grey. I have changed it to use the panel border colors if it is different to the background color

support for extra "open Auto DJ settings" image in bitmap skins
- for the next update, i have added "AutoDjSettingsButton". For reference, the MB one is 11x3px but it doesnt have to be the same size

I meant the record image that thumbnail browser shows for "All Albums" item when "Album" is selected.
- thats in the next update as "UnknownAlbumIcon"
- and in case you missed by edit: I have added "UnknownGenre" for the next update. I recommend 128px for the 100%dpi image

Would it be possible to override the image that pops up when dragging and dropping playlist items?

support for highlight colouring on override "EditSave" icon
either as auto-colouring (as other icons in the header currently do) or the addition of an "EditSaveHighlight" image
i have changed the default save button and default colouring to be consistent with the other buttons.
In all cases the highlight background/border is the same for all the buttons, including when you have a custom "EditSave" button
