It didn't do that for me. *shrug* Unfortunately, Xamarin tries to force its own color scheme, and only partially succeeds at it, leaving the program filled with barely-readable "light-on-light" text and other text that appears partially-rendered kinda like "anti-aliasing gone terribly wrong" (not to mention lots of eye-searing plain-white backgrounds). I'm not a GTK fan, but when I get a chance I'll have to try compiling the plain-vanilla non-Xamarin MonoDevelop if there indeed isn't a pre-built Windows version of it.
