I love dark theme, and right after I've spend a hour to tweak my TC file color scheme to dark mode, I realize many controls like listbox and buttons is visual identical, whether they are enabled or not.
As is in TC search dialog screenshot:

according to Mr Ghisler, it's Windows theme limitation.
I wonder is there any work-around for that, maybe some third-party advanced dark theme have better GUI distinguishment between enabled and disabled controls?

Re: Dark Theme problem
At least in the edit and combo boxes, only the text color changes when the control is disabled. So you will only see a difference when there is some text shown in the control.
