[ Ticket #4423 ] [ Bug ] qwindowsvistastyle.dll does not style the line color

Post by Roy_043 »

I have talked about this before, but for clarity I have decided to start a new 'Bug' topic.

Old topic:
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=45022

The problem:
The lines in task panels and dialog boxes are not styled by qwindowsvistastyle.dll but the background is. In recent Windows version the default line color is light gray. This color is almost indistinguishable from the light blue background color.

The solution could be to also style the lines in qwindowsvistastyle.dll, or to not override the OS dialog background color.

Is this something that can easily be fixed? Or should I add this to the Tracker?

The issue has already been confirmed.
For example:
