If you are here right after the wine 7.4 release (2022-03-11) and wondering why your application suddenly has become light: simply switch from the newly enabled "Light" theme back to "(No style)" in winecfg.

@ojdo Thank you! I was already in the theme section and was wondering about the new Light style. Would be nice to have the Breeze Dark as a proper msstyle now to use with the new system.

ALMOST looks good for some .NET stuff... Heh

Probably setting their own colors

About .NET: this appears to be an issue with Mono. NSMBe5, a level editor for New Super Mario Bros. which uses .NET, had very bad issues with this theme which were fixed after installing native .NET 4.8 with winetricks. I unfortunately never bothered taking a screenshot of the issues so you'll just have to take my word for it that it was really bad (half of the elements weren't being affected by the theme at all), but the after speaks for itself, it's all good now:

Though indeed, a proper msstyles would be very nice. Plus from what I can tell, the format allows you to do a lot that could potentially allow getting much closer to the original Breeze Dark than this simple color swap.

Looks cool!

Some parts of the menu bar are still white and perhaps harder to read others, but definitely nicer! Thanks!

This doesn't seem to do anything for me, anybody know if a .msstyle or .theme exists for this?

@Megalomaniak You have to set the desktop integration theme to "(No theme)" for the registry values to work (As mentioned in the first comment)

Did that not work?

@parkerlreed That's what I had it on. Though would prefer if it added a new theme to the drop down selection. Ended up finding a msstyle for windows that was trying to mimic photoshop CC dark theme, it'll do. Still doesn't add to the list tho, but at least the colors took effect.
