Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having issues. But I have not see it on Dark blue, could you give a screen shot of your problem.

Thank you.

Basj,

As Deckard_Cain83 said, this is reproducible in 1.18 with LibreOffice. They posted a screenshot. I can't because, as I said, I downgraded to 1.17, and now, bizarrely, 1.18 is no longer offered as an update:

Has 1.18 been silently pulled? 1.18 is not in the ChangeLog either. 

Thanks for your reply, but it appears that Stardock has put 1.18 behind a wall. As I stated in the original posting, I am evaluating groupy with the 30 day trial, so I have no product key, and when I put my email into the form you linked me to it says:

Sorting out these errors are part of my evaluation. Being linked to software behind a wall does not build confidence. A version which has no ChangeLog (as of this moment) does not build confidence. But I am keeping an open mind. I really want to like Groupy. I want a version of Groupy that works with Dark Mode as promised. I want to trust StarDock as a company. I need the functionality of Groupy, and it makes a lot of sense.  

OK, my Groupy found the 1.18 update today on its own, so I have made now my own dark mode screenshots to show you, illustrating the reproducible bug that I originally posted with:

1. The main issue: Hard to read black text (instead of white) on the Active tab on a LibreOffice Writer window that has the focus:

2. A secondary issue, but extra credit if you could solve virtually unreadable text on inactive tabs on a LibreOffice Writer window that does not have the focus: 

Is Stardock going to acknowledge this visual bug and fix it? 

This issue is only seen if one uses "Combine if Possible' and not 'Always Place Above'

This minor issue has been logged internally.

I also use the Combine if possible only, due to not wanting to lose more vertical space in my screen.

But not with 'Always Place Above' set I trust.

I have tested an internal build that fixes this issue.  It should be released in a beta after the first of the year some time.

The color was not changed in the app itself, the Active title bar color comes from the Windows 10 interface.

Here are my exact settings. (Notice "Dark Mode" is also switched on.)

I am trying to reduce glare and eyestrain when I can in Windows 10, so my Inactive title bar was changed to a dark color with WinAeroTweaker 0.12.1.0 under Appearance in that program. (I wanted a darker, less harsh alternative to the bright default inactive title bar color.)

I appreciate your work on compatibility with LibreOffice Writer.

Last Issue:
Ctrl-N for a new document in LibreOffice should pop it open in a tab, as tabbed programs like Firefox, Chrome, Visual Studio Code, Notepad++, etc. do.

My 30-days of beta-testing Groupy are near an end, as the program notified me, so I have uninstalled it, since Groupy is not quite ready yet. I am still willing to take the time to provide feedback on here about my experiences.

If Groupy irons out its issues I will certainly be purchasing it. The software has great potential.
