Heya! I have a tabber within a tabber and that second tabber has an annoying grey background behind the tabs: ![]() Is there any way to change this? I've done a lot of searching but I'm stuck! :/ Thanks! |

Is there any way to change this? Not sure, haven't see that before... Are you using a manifest file on Windows?Last edited 2012 |

Are you using a manifest file on Windows? Yep! |

I remember JoshK saying this was the reason he gave up trying to support custom skins and he usually finds a solution if there is one to be found. |

The old tabber was completely grey and thus tabber in tabber was just looking fine. But when Seb made the changes for XP and Vista the inner part was converted to white to be XP compliant. As far as I know the surrounding grey is hardcoded in the OS so no way to change that. Best workaround is may to put the tabber itself on a panel with background color matching the grey of the tabber. |

Hi! I'm reviving this thread and hoping someone might find a solution to this since I have stumped upon this annoying problem once again =P So please respond if you know how this can be done. Thank you! |

The only way is to write your own 'owner drawn' OS control. While entirely possible to do, its not a trivial task. |

I'm looking for the same thing and I think the above is what you want, no? |
