    Windows 7: Change colors of these 2 visual style items?


    In Windows 7, is there a way to change the white glow around title bar text to make it black? I want to set the title bar to white text with black glow so that it blends in better with my dark theme.

    Also, is there a way to change the blue tint of the menus and toolbars to make it match our main visual style color? I would prefer gray.

    Not sure about the first question... but the second one can be adjusted by custom themes.

    For example:

    You may be able to remove that through the advanced color settings in Window Color. It's probably called Menu or Menu bar.
