Wow, glad to hear it's making such a big difference, Dalibor!
I have been using workarounds for years with only so-so results. This package is a complete solution that skinned everything perfectly. Can't recommend enough! These guys 'get it'.

One-and-done! Dark mode with a single install, no questions to answer, no popups, no credit card required.

Great App. Succeeded to do what Microsoft couldn't achieve. The Developer is reactive and always seeks perefection. Having this app is a MUST

SQLShades really does a good job that MS can't 😁 All child windows & elements inside SSMS are darkened correctly. Thanks for your support, Michael.
