Sorry that i ask (saw that occasionally and was wondering why your toolbar is light):

but why do you switch (NPP preferences) intentionally dark mode OFF (= light mode),
and select a Dark theme nevertheless within the NPP style ocnfigurator?

With NPP preference Dark mode and using any dark theme it should look somehow like:

[Skrell]

just a preference I guess. I prefer the regular color icons in the toolbar rather than the fluent ones. Is there any way to let users choose the color of the font manually?

@Skrell agree. I have the issue too with latest Notepad++ 8.5.2 and Explorer plugin 1.8.2.21

Thank you for reporting back!

I mistakenly used .text from NPPM_GETDARKMODECOLORS.
I was reverted to using the font color from editor.

This problem has been fixed in ver. 1.8.2.22.

Unfortunately the highlighted folder still has the wrong font color:

@Skrell i see that too.

@funap not to nitpick - but the "arrows" to expand directories are also black (also in the Favorites) dialog, but in 1.8.2.19, they used to be much more like the text:

Contrast my image from 1.8.2.19 with @Skrell from above and you can see the directory expanding arrows have gotten darker in the new version.

Note, the Favorites tree in 1.8.2.19 already had dark directory expander arrows:

It would be nice to standardize the directory expander arrows in both Explorer Tree and Favorites to the text color. Can that be "fixed" with this too?

Cheers.

Please use ver.1.8.2.19 until the problem is resolved.

Thanks for reporting the issue!
Those problem has been improved in ver. 1.8.2.23.

Sweet 3x's a charm!! Best explorer plugin for NPP period!! Thank you!!

[Skrell]

Random but related... this is an issue with Notepad++ as confirmed by others...BUT since the author refuses to fix it is there anything you can do to change the color of the "current folder" highlight ? As you can see it's barely visible!

[funap]

@Skrell
It is true that the highlight color is preset by Windows, so it is difficult to see under some conditions.
Currently there is no workaround, but I will try to work around this by changing to owner drawing.
I appreciate your patience as it might take some time.

We appreciate your time and commitment to this plugin! Also I was thinking you should change the name of your plugin since there is another Explorer plugin for NPP with the exact same name but different version number and your Explorer plugin should get MORE attention IMO!
