Some of the flags that have been added to support dark theme on Windows are not working / have issues on Windows 11. The issues I could see in particular: - "useDarkModeExplorerTheme" - the tree items arrows are black when expanded (arrow pointing down) and on hover, the scrollbars aren't dark themed, as aren't context menus - "Combo.useDarkTheme" - weird behavior in combos: they are not dark, get dark on hover, which makes their arrow very much disappear
Win11 requires recent patch from Bug 576613 which is not part of released Eclipse yet. You can try an IBuild built after 2021-10-20: https://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/
I can confirm the vast majority of matters have been fixed. We are still experiencing a very noticeable issue on Windows 11 dark theme though, which is the hover and selection of toolitems in toolbars being bright blue
Our product is not using toolbars, so I won't be able to allocate time to fix that, sorry.

I've been checking dark theme integration in a recent Windows update (Windows11 22H2 10.0.22621). I notice there is a very useful view for testing SWT widgets, called "SWT Controls". It is located at [1]: I used this to show ToolItem controls. I created a screengrab [2] comparing 3 platforms, Ubuntu, Win10 and Win11, so it's easy to see the difference. Regarding the "bright blue", it seems more pronounced on Win11 now; it's bright blue rather than dark blue. I think some hue of blue seems to be the standard way Windows shows selection/highlights. But something seems wrong here. @Jose Vasco, is this the bug you are referring to?
