"Find All" dialog should have a grey background and a border

Currently it is difficult to visually recognize whether the Find All button is part of the Find All dialog (Ctrl+F) or of the main window

It would be nice if the background is grey and has a border like the Control Tab Order dialog

(see attached Screenshots)

It would be great if you could consider this feature.

best regards,
Stefan

Re: "Find All" dialog should have a grey background and a border

Hello Stefan,

I'm afraid I can't reproduce this on Windows 11/10. Normally these dialogs use the system theme.

Can you tell me the OS version and build number where you reproduce this problem? You can also send us the theme details of your system.

Best regards,
Liviu

Re: "Find All" dialog should have a grey background and a border

Hi Liviu,

Thank you for your hints. I found the solution.
There is a Windows setting: Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows, which opens Performance Options dialog. Within this dialog, there is a checkbox labeled Show shadows under windows.
I had the default settings, which were not checked in my case.

When I select the checkbox I got the shadow. This solves my problem.

Thank you very much,

best regards,
Stefan

P.S.: the operating system is Windows Server 2019 Version 1809.
