Tab color in new UI is wrong in some IDEs

IDEA 2023.1.1 (Ultimate Edition):

WebStrom 2023.1.1:

Rider:

See #56

I can't recall the details but when I was looking for a way to change the tab highlighting I came across a few tickets in YouTrack regarding the new UI ignoring some of the tab related color scheme settings.

hah, same question, werid

This is the YouTrack ticket I was referring to:

I get this with the 'old' UI on IntelliJ Idea 2023.1.1 since the 2.7 release and this commit 47c3184

Same issue here on PhpStorm. Needed to use a plugin to override it

[jsodeman]

@patrickteng This one? https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/9562-active-tab-highlighter

[patrickteng]

@jsodeman
yes, currently using that, but still slightly buggy (it goes to default pink color if i navigate to other apps, but reverts to the color i set after clicking on another tab). Still better than the bright blue on the vsc-dark-plus currently.

Alright. I can reproduce it with PhpStorm 2023.1.1 and new UI:

For what it's worth, I'm also seeing this in PhpStorm 2023.1.1 with the old UI enabled, after updating the theme plugin to version 2.7.

Manually downloading and reinstalling version 2.6 fixes the issue

I just updated to 2023.1.2 in both WebStorm and Rider and it looks like the active tab identification is fixed in both.

Edit: in the NewUI

WebStorm

Rider

PhpStorm 2023.1.2.

Old UI:

New UI:

[jsodeman]

@samdark That's progress though right? :-) At least there's a version that works for each.

PhpStorm 2023.1.2.

Old UI:

New UI:

Same happens in PyCharm 2023.1.2 (Professional Edition)

This issue is came back after upgrade to 2023.1.3, tested in IDEA and WebStorm. The UI is same as the initial post.
Downgrade to 2.6 and use old UI works fine.

After updating PhpStorm to version 2023.1.3 the problem returned.

Will be fixed in the upcoming release.
