Here is some tricks and tips, and also I am having one problem finding one setting. Wondering if anyone knows.

In order to change the colors of SierraChart. You need to goto Regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Control Panel/Colors.

I got all my charts and borders nicely black/dark theme, just one problem area. See my colors, and how to edit registry.

Another quick way to do it is to switch to windows High Contrast color theme.

However, still same problem... Control bar area doesnt change color, is that not set in windows?

Ok, Charbook Tab settings are part of SierraChart Global Graphics, here is my final theme. Enjoy!

For those who want to modify SierraChart appearance, refer them to this thread!

Edit: I switched back to Non-High Contrast Windows Dark normal theme plus the registry edits. The window borders in sierra chart are windows button colors. See latest attachment.
