Audacity Forum

Yeah, it was already checked. Out of curiosity I unchecked it and restarted Audacity, didn't make a difference.

Does Audacity use gtk2 or gtk3? My system seems to be using a hybrid of both. Maybe I don't have the right gtk-related package installed.

Update: also tried changing the system gtk theme to a few different ones, didn't make a difference. Audacity's menus conform to the theme, but the spectrogram settings box is still all white with light grey text.

@steve as I said, changing the theme in Preferences > Interface doesn't make a difference, unless you meant something else. I don't see any other relevant options in the Interface settings.

Debian sid Audacity 2.2.1, distribution's release Problem with the visual interface since the last couple months. Audacity used to follow my system's dark GTK theme, but now it seems to be sort of mixed dark and light, kind of ugly but whatever. Looking at the history I'd say it's been since the 2.2...
