Those colors are usually set by the current windows color scheme. Programs in windows often don't override those colors.

System 1:

Windows 10
i9-10850K 10 Core
128.0G RAM
Nvidia RTX 3060 Studio driver [most likely latest]
Resolution        3840 x 2160 x 60 hertz
Video Memory 12G GDDR5

 

System 2:

Lenovo Yoga 720
Core i7-7700 2.8Ghz quad core, 8 logical
16G ram
Intel HD 630 gpu 1G vram
Nvidia GTX 1050 gpu 2G vram

In some cases, you are right. But Vegas is the only software on my system that is showing it that way. Even when I select dark mode on Windows 10, everything is dark, except the Vegas top bar.

It's not a big deal. I'll survive. It would just be nice to tweak it to match the rest of the UI.

Ahh, I haven't played with the windows schemes in years. VP is one of those windows programs that don't pay proper attention to the active scheme and always set their title bar white. Probably because the user could set a scheme that would make it unreadable since nothing else in their interface follows the window colors.

Maybe after they work on performance and stability they can work on a theme engine :-)

On my version, and most of the screenshots I've seen of Vegas 18, the white bar on top is in all of them. I take it that there isn't a way to alter the color of it? A medium gray option would make it blend in better with the rest of the UI.


@dirk-g I totally agree with you that it looks bad! You can reduce that annoying white bar by changing some settings in Windows "Color" settings. See my example below:

That did the trick. Thanks. It looks much easier on the eyes.
