Edit box on Find window is white

[Andrew Truckle]

Hi!

Using 6.5.5 on Windows 11:

As you can see, in my own application the edit control shows in dark mode. But in Inno 6.5.5 it shows white.

Sorry, I mean 6.5.0!

Hi,

In Inno Setup the darkening of this dialog is done by Delphi's VCL Styles. Does your application use this technique as well? 

I was aware of this white edit, so perhaps I should have said the dark mode support is nearly full. The most 'non-dark' is the task dialog preview shown by the message box designer. I have found only one semi-reasonable technique to make task dialogs dark but it's GPL licensed. 

Microsoft's lack of support for dark mode in Windows applications is pretty mind boggling for sure!

Greetings,

Martijn

Hi

No, my app is Windows MFC. I rolled out my own overrides of all controls to use the dark mode styles. 99% is ok. It was just time consuming/ date controls that show white. So I have a set of classes and all my dialogs derive from the same base class. As a result I can l.support light or dark quite nicely. The Find dialog only had a normal edit control so it worked like other dialogs for me.
