Background color of the new margin does not match the background color of the theme background color, is this intentional?

$ git grep -n "WidgetStyle name=\"Change History margin\""

PowerEditor/src/stylers.model.xml:1416:        <WidgetStyle name="Change History margin" styleID="0" bgColor="E0E0E0" />

It looks like the theme maintainers are just beginning to catch up.

I miss the github links usually provided on the fixes and new features list. :-(

I think you’re going to have to explain what you mean a little more than that…

@Ekopalypse

regarding this, I noticed the Dark Mode default theme:

./PowerEditor/installer/themes/DarkModeDefault.xml

Does not have the:

        <WidgetStyle name="Change History margin" styleID="0" bgColor="101010" />

(bgColor above reflects the background color of the ‘Fold margin’ - change as you like).

Cheers.

Just open stylers.xml
duplicate line <WidgetStyle name=“Bookmark margin” styleID=“0” bgColor=“xxxxxx” />
and in duplicated line change “Bookmark margin” to “Change History margin”.

That way Change History margin and neighbouring Bookmark margin will have the same color.

Let’s hope that till final release all themes will be updated :) (I updated DeepBlack which I use).
