Title: Location of File Explorer Status Bar Background and the blue "File" tab?
Post by: ChicoThorn on May 13, 2014, 06:16:58 pm
Does anyone know where the background color for the file explorer status bar is?  I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find it.  Also the blue "File" tab on the Ribbon... I'd like to change the color, is that possible?  Thanks for you help!   ;)

The blue file tab isn't a part of the msstyles, it's a part of the Ribbon Framework.

Also please don't upload pictures in PDF files.

Still Explorer & Shell > Explorer > Items View > ItemsView > FILLCOLOR

With Old New Explorer you can get this instead:

Yellow is Toolbars, Headers, & Rebar > Toolbars & Headers > Status
Green is Explorer & Shell > Explorer > CommandModule > Button
Red text is Explorer & Shell > Explorer > PreviewPane > Attribute Value > Static
Black separators are Toolbars, Headers, & Rebar > Toolbars & Headers > Toolbar > Separator

Thank you Panda X and 3am!  I really appreciate your help.  Panda X, should I upload .pngs or .jpgs in .zips?  Is that the preferred method?  Or is it better to embed the image right in the comment like 3am did?  And how did he do that anyway?   ;)  Thanks again.

To embed an image like I did select "Insert Image" in the toolbar and then paste in the image location

Where is the Ribbon Framework, can it be edited, and if so how do I go about it?  — Thanks!

No the Ribbon can't be customized. That blue isn't an image, it's a generated color.
