Wow! I'm surprised that WindowBlinds has the ability to change not just the titlebar but the actual background color of Sierra Chart. I'm an avid dark theme user, my web browser Waterfox, file explorer Directory Opus, video player PotPlayer, Visual Studio and of course my windows taskbar are all dark themed. Thank you so much Scott for posting your findings. For anyone wondering, Stardock charges $9.99 for WindowBlinds. I also recommend another program from Stardock called Fences. I've used it for years and it helps to organize desktop shortcuts and files. Useful for people who download from web browsers to the desktop instead of the User/Download folder. https://www.stardock.com/products/fences/ I don't blame Sierra Chart for not supporting a dark theme because that would be another thing that would require support for and people would be asking for more customization. Better to focus on core functionality than cosmetics. It's also a major task to make a C++ program like Sierra Chart look like modern Flat/Metro themes (C# WPF). For niche users like ourselves who want a dark theme, WindowBlinds looks like it fills the need.
