I love the functionality and layout of the Windows 7 flyouts (Clock, Volume Mixer etc.), but the white backgrounds are quite jarring on a dark theme. I just wondered if there is any way to get the Windows 7 flyouts to have a darker background that better fits with dark mode?

Using a third party theme and patching through ultrauxtheme can solve this. However, be aware that how well the win 7 flyouts take to dark mode will depend on the particular theme you are using. For example: Useful links: |

For example:
My current theme does the mixer fine but the clock is a fail.
That said, I have used themes that will happily deal with both.
