Hide Site Color in Tab Bar

Jump to bottom
Jace edited this page Nov 4, 2026 · 2 revisions

With tabs at the top and Hide Toolbar on, the selected tab keeps the page colour and its normal title instead of the site's colour. As the toolbar fades in on hover, the tab takes the site's colour again, so the two still run into each other.

Hide site color in the tab bar off, then on

Turn it on

Open Dia → Settings → Patches → Hide Toolbar and, under While It's Hidden, switch on Hide Site Color in Tab Bar. Or run:

diatweaks enable plainSelectedTab

Needs

Hide Toolbar. Settings greys out this switch until that's on, and diatweaks enable plainSelectedTab offers to turn it on too.

FAQ

Why does nothing change with tabs in the sidebar?

Dia only fills the selected tab with the site's colour when tabs are at the top.
