Dark Mode - Issue with Application Title Bar

I've got an issue with the DOpus title bar at the top. When my PC boots up and I open DOpus the menu bar is white.

Dark Mode is already selected and enabled as part of my saved settings. However, if I temporarily change to light mode and back to dark mode again, the title bar at the top changes to dark.

Is this a bug? Or is there a way to not have to perform this workaround each time I start DOpus each time I boot my PC.

Thanks in advance.

BTW I've been using DOpus since Amiga days and still use it from time to time on my Amiga Mini.

Not sure what's happening there. It doesn't happen on any of my machines.

The titlebar is drawn by Windows. We tell Windows we want a dark one, if in dark mode, but the rest is up to the OS.

You could try setting Opus to always use dark mode (rather than follow the system mode), in case it's misdetecting the system mode the first time for some reason. I'm not aware of anything that would cause that, but it's worth a try. That's done under Preferences / Colors and Fonts / Dark Mode.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

I've tried your suggestion and it's still the same sadly.

I'm using the latest full version 13.14 of DOpus and I'm on Windows 11 24H2. I've recently switched to a new PC and when I get a min I'll check if it does the same thing on my old PC. The old PC hasn't been upgraded to 24H2 yet.

If you have anything like WindowBlinds installed it'd be worth disabling it to see if it's involved.
