    @vogella: Maybe some of your CSS changes caused this?

    Cannot reproduce on Win11.

    @nlisker can you try that CSS snippet via the menu: Window -> Spies -> CSS Scratch Pad:

      CTabFolder > Composite.ToolbarComposite,
      CTabFolder > Composite.ToolbarComposite > ToolBar {
          background-color: #49484C;
      }

    @nlisker if the above snippets does not work, please try:

    CTabFolder > Composite > ToolBar {
        background-color: #49484C;
    }

    For comparison, correct css from I20260808:
    Image

    Current:
    Image

    Using your first snippet, I get:
    Image

    2nd snippet:
    Image

    So the separators are correct, but the underline is not and so are the minimize and maximize buttons.

    The tabs bar is also still off. Compare the correct

    with the current

    I'm noticing more and more places where the background changed:

    And with the current:

    I don't mind stronger contrast but this looks wrong.

    I think you are seeing the bug which will be fixed with eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt#3548. Any chance you could test it?

    I can only test integration builds.

    I could provide you a test SDK build for testing. Would that work for you? Integrating something into the I-build just for testing is nothing I will do and I do not have Win10 access.

    OK, let's try that.
