So lets make new ui theme colors? i don't like the idea, we have too many themes to change after that (and themes in addons)

Of which I am one... so it is a step back.

I am reverting to 1.112.1 until I hit a really bad bug or this is resolved.

I also have the same confusion:
Why has the same color between the tab and the menu?
After I modify the tab color the menu color becomes some strange.
I think it is worthy of adding one more UI color option for this wonderful feature( ability to modify menu color) even there are too many options.

Thanks.

I cannot reproduce this greeen/yellow. pls post here your UI theme file.

@tmsg I added option to turn off MenuStyler.

I've downloaded v113.2 and it is OK now.

Honestly, I find it rather puzzling that you replace a central UI component with something that is (at least for some users) a clear step backwards without giving them an option to return to the old behaviour.

Secondly, I fully agree with @hycmos that this tabs/menu colour mishmash is not the best solution. For the long run you should really think about separating the definitions for these two UI elements. IMHO.

Anyway, thanks for an (as always

) fast response.

I have the intuition, it fails sometimes. in 40% of cases. so give me a feedback. and thanks, you gave it.
About menu colors: maybe I will add ui theme colors, which will be "none" as default, to use "tabs" colors if they are "none".

beta:

It has 5 new ui-theme colors for menu.

if I excute the fresh original version, the menu color can be changed.
but if I unzip the install file to my old foler to use my custom theim, it can not take effect.

Hi, I find the cause:
In my old "\cudatext\settings\user.json" one line is:
"ui_menu_themed" : false

if I delete this line I can modify the menu BG color.

I dont know why this line is there.
