It is working!  :up:

At least for now.

It may be hard to see the difference because I am using an extremely lite green, but it is easy to see difference on the characters. I now recognize that I have been missing this - I used the feature on my previous computers.


MilesAhead:
I've heard from a bunch of people on various forums that it works on their machines.  But I've tried it on both my machines and not found it stable.

I don't really understand why they try to lock away the Explorer background color setting.  To recover from an emergency, like some dude setting the text and background color the same, all they'd need is a panic button on the ToolBar to reset those colors to default. Not exactly rocket science.

In fact in the theme settings for dialogs you can set background and text color the same.  They don't stop you from messing it up there.  No rhyme to the reason that I can see. :)

Curt:
However, the new guy is young, and idealistic about the project, so for some years I guess it will keep on being a fine tool.

It has been interesting to follow ShiningMasamune's work with his new version of QTTabBar on his >commit log<. Now he has finished the Options Dialog:

Quizo QTTabbar


I am really looking forward to the final product!  :-*

Curt:
It has now been 13 months without a word from the young "ShiningMasamune", and I find it safe not to say, I don't trust updates are coming, but to say, I trust updates are not coming.

One can say Quizo not made it easy for any one to understand what went on. I am now guessing he simply don't want to debate in English (https://twitter.com/QTTabBar is Japanese only). But English or not, he is updating his program!

http://qttabbar.wikidot.com/qttabbar is the new black AGAIN. Sadly it is also too black. New users are completely left unattended... abandoned... There is no help whatsoever of any kind. Maybe that is one of the reasons that there now is a 3½MB zip container named "Source codes and Plugin Lib". So what about it, reader, are you a coder?
 ;)

At the top of the homepage there is a line saying "Create account or Sign In". It has really nothing to do with QuizoApps, but is for wikidot.com only.
