Because you have left it as x, then this could be controversial, because event the blue theme has changed for 4 out of the 5 versions, there there are the other colour themes to implement / use.

Hi @Smurf-IV

Should I rename it to 2019? It came up as an idea on the Discord chat group.

2017 theme is decent and it's popular (I did not install 19 yet), Here are color value references from MSDN for VS 2017 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/extensibility/ux-guidelines/color-value-reference-for-visual-studio?view=vs-2017, if it seems complicated, I can get the RGBs of the important things. but there is a problem in scrollbars. we need to find a way to change the scrollbar look according to a pallette not just for the built-in-krypton tools or we will get like this result (DarkUI used)

Hi @Smurf-IV & @zeyadahmed

What I could do for the interim is to create a new xml theme file using the colours that @zeyadahmed has provided, until I can find out how the built-in palette system works. How does this sound?

@Wagnerp That's possible of course, but you will have to state what colour of the visual studio theme you are using as well (i.e. Dark(Black or is it grey?), Blue, etc.)

@Smurf-IV Yes sure, will name the file VisualStudio2015 + colour. The other route is to use the current Office365PaletteBase to make native themes.

Hi @Smurf-IV & @zeyadahmed

This is what I've come up with so far...
Visual Studio 2019 Dark.zip

Oh cool I have seen your reply on discord, It's good but the largest step will be when having a function to set the scrollbar theme according to the selected palette like "ApplyThemeToControl(MyListBox);" will be amazing!
