Selected text color issues between 2012 and 2016.

Hello,

We are having issues with our hover/selected colors on a listbox on Windows Server 2012 R2 not showing correctly when compared to Windows Server 2016. I've included a screenshot of both scenarios down below. I've done research and found out how to change background colors and text style colors, however these hover and selected color configurations have eluded me.

Re: Selected text color issues between 2012 and 2016.

Hello and welcome to our forums,

I am afraid neither the hover color nor the selected item color can be customized. These are the default our "Surface" theme uses and they are dependent on the UI API we use to create the all theme controls. And indeed the UI API we use has different color tenants for Windows Server 2012 R2 and Server 2016.

I have forwarded your request to our development team and hopefully they will add support to customize these UI styles in the future. Thank you for your suggestion.

All the best,
Daniel
