Darken Page Behind

Darkens the page behind the command bar while it's open.

Why use it

Dimming the page makes the command bar stand out, especially over a bright page. Turn it off if you want the page to keep its colors, or set Darkness low for a light dim.

Turn it off

It's on by default. Open Dia → Settings → Patches → Open New Tabs in Command Bar and, under Darken, switch off Darken Page Behind. Or run:

diatweaks disable commandBarDarken

Options

Under Darken on the command bar page, Darkness sets how dark the page gets (24% to begin with).

Needs

Command bar. Settings greys out this switch until that's on, and diatweaks enable commandBarDarken offers to turn it on too.

Works with

Blur Page Behind. With both on, the page is blurred and darkened.
