I got it to work; all I did was to disable High contrast in the theme; I then set the colors in settings; the rest of the look provided by the skins remains - works! thanks

Thanks. I created the skin I wanted (only changing the taskbar color. Looks right in Skin Studio Looks right within WindowBlinds when skin and revised theme are applied. No change to REAL taskbar when applied. Suggestions?

Yes, I managed to figure out those steps in Skin Studio. Looks like only the 'Show Desktop' icon in the rightmost corner of the taskbar took the new color, rest of taskbar is as before for 'The Captain'. You also see the new 'image color' in the Window Blinds UI (at the bottom where you would expect it). On a another topic, why are the choices on the Settings/Color page greyed out? Transparency, Start, taskbar and action center checkboxes? Th

I must be missing something. I replaced this file 'taskbar_horiz_win8.tga' using PS for the color I wanted. No cigar (I logged off/on) I don't see how to attach files here or insert images.... Thanks

Thanks, got the editor, can isolate the taskbar, looks like we are down to the molecules and will need to 'edit' the taskbar color using MS Paint, correct?

You guys have done a great job with this software. Until now I've dinking with Win10 Settings and other color control software (in the registry) to customize desktop/windows colors. I see there is no registry entry (used in the theme) for controlling the Taskbar bar color - any other way to do it? Thanks! R
