Title: treeview font color issue

font color is grey. but when i restarted my pc, it turns black. I'd like to make it stay to grey color (inactive).

 If you open the .theme in notepad is there a section named [Control Panel\Colors] ?

If so make sure your colors there are the same as the colors you changed in WSB because these will over-ride your changes depending on how you apply your theme

You really don't need this section in your .theme file as long as you have WSB anyway.

===================

Yes i'm using wsb 1.5.4.4. I'm sure i did all font colors correct. 'cause when i'm testing the theme on wsb, it looks like what i want (font color) but when i restart my pc, it turns the grey to black.
I can't see [Control Panel\Colors]

Sorry for the questions. Just making sure lol

It should be Fonts & System Metrics > WINDOWTEXT:COLOR

I just tested it on a test msstyles. Tested, Installed and the color stuck on reboot. So it works for me. Don't know what to tell you. Sorry

I just did it using your chromium beta2 theme and it worked but I had to correct your theme path to get it to apply correctly

(http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu41/3am_2009/Untitled-28_zpsc51f352e.png)

There were too many folders and the path didn't touch on all of them.

I also made my own .theme file ( redoing .aero theme file) instead of using the one generated by WSB. Not sure if that made a difference.

Writing the globals to the applied .theme file make it stick, I'll add [Control Panel\Colors] to the next WSB so it'll stick. Though you'll need to apply the theme in the control panel manually until I find a way to do so automatically. I'll get a release out today after I get back home.
