[StExBar 1.10.2] Adjust Bar Color & Seperator Style broken in Dark Mode Windows 10 Version 1809 (Build 17763.503)

Hi there,
i found your StExBar and it seems very usefull! :)

But it would be nice to change the Colors to properly integrate in the Windows 10 Dark Mode.

Because of now the "Black" Background looks a little ugly with a greyish Explorer ^^
It also seems the "Seperators" are Broken in Windows 10 Dark Mode and the Bar Name "StEx" Background is still white in Dark Mode.

Tested in Windows 10 Version 1809 (Build 17763.503)

Screenshot of the Bar in Dark Mode:

Possibly you can add a Custom Color feature for the whole Bar and Font?

Maybe you also can add the Option to individually Show/Hide the Button Text for each Button (especially Options Button) and also Move/Show/Hide the StEx Text?

I know all this is just Style and not priority but if no one ask it maybe never will be added ;)

Anyway...
Great Project and please keep go on with it! :)

Hiding or styling the "StEx" text is not possible since that's a part of explorer itself, not the StExBar. So we can't do anything there.
As for the colors: this would require complete custom drawing all the controls. I most likely won't go there...

Very sad to hear that!
But in the case you will fix the bug(s) its kinda useless for me to use the bar again.
I dont really like unfinished stuff.

Anyway thanks for the try!
bye
