Dark Mode for PyWebView

[byte127x]

In my current app, the titlebar looks light

Is there any way to get it to look dark, like it does in this other programs?

@r0x0r can you add something like this?

Dark mode is not implemented, but it could be done. Contributions welcomed.

If you are using winforms you can do this:

import ctypes
from ctypes import wintypes

import webview
from webview.platforms.winforms import BrowserView

window = webview.create_window("")

dwmapi = ctypes.windll.LoadLibrary("dwmapi")
window.events.shown += lambda: dwmapi.DwmSetWindowAttribute(
    BrowserView.instances[window.uid].Handle.ToInt32(),
    20,
    ctypes.byref(ctypes.c_bool(True)),
    ctypes.sizeof(wintypes.BOOL),
)
webview.start()

If you are using a different renderer you'll need to find a different way to get the window handle.

Works great! But when the window is selected the bars color becomes black instead of grey like when it's de-selected.
Comparing to other windows the bar color stays grey and only the text becomes white.
I have no idea what the above code actually does but is it something in there that decides the selected-color?
