Toolbars "Background colors" option

Atlantis 3.2.13.0
portable installation on USB thumb drive
Windows XP (SP3)

The “Background colors” option of “Customize Toolbars” works as advertised when one of the new dark colors is selected, but nothing happens when one of the light colors is selected—that is, the toolbar background remains white no matter which of the light colors is selected. This is the case whether “Tool bands” or “Classic toolbars” is selected. I reverted to version 3.2.12.1, but “Background colors” doesn’t seem to have any effect on that version either.

I’ve just upgraded from version 2.0.6.0, so I don’t know whether the feature works on even earlier versions of 3.x.

The color previews in the "Background color" box of the "Customize Toolbars" dialog are not 100% WYSIWYG (this is by design). Actual colors are normally lighter than those previews. But the actual background colors are not white at all. Please try changing the monitor brightness and/or contrast (temporarily).

The difference is too subtle for me to see on my monitor, but my color picker does show that the different background colors are indeed different.

Is there a way that I can manually set the background color (color code) of my choosing using Atlantis.ini? or any other way?

Currently there is no way, sorry.

In version 3.2.13.1 you will have a much wider choice of background colors.
