Hi,

is it possible to switch to Dark Mode/Dark Theme? Does MS provide a Dark Theme solution?

Thanks Scholle

Hi, I think there is actually no (easy) way for a Dark Theme solution. MS is working on a solution, see Themes Implementation in Winforms. But I don't know the MS solution works for the Ribbon too. I think the MS apps "Windows Explorer", "Wordpad" and "Paint" are also using the Windows Ribbon, but are programmed in C++. In Windows Explorer you can see, that the Dark Mode is working, Wordpad and Paint are not working.

You can set Ribbon Property DarkModeRibbon for activating Dark Mode only for Ribbon. See also Changelog.md for an example with Dark Mode in the Title Bar
