Sure, I'm using SliknesS-Dark from

yeap the problem is all kind of controls, but the DESKTOP_SESSION=KDE 
nasty trick works perfectly ;-) , no ideal, but at least it keep me safe

Mauricio: you could just add a runtime condition.
Like: if (Type.GetType("System.MonoType", false) != null) {
Form1.ForeColor

Carlos: not just the ToolStrip, from what he says, but all controls.

Not in the last release sadly, as it was committed after the release. So I
take for granted is only happening with ToolStrip?

One possible workaround is to set DESKTOP_SESSION to any string starting
with 'KDE' - this way our theme engine will try to detect the KDE settings
(will print a warning if it couldn't find the libs). This way the winforms
app will not be loading the gnome settings, and it should work 'fine'
(remember to set this env var only in the terminal where you execute your
winforms app ;-) ) Try something like:

env DESKTOP_SESSION=KDE mono MyApp.exe

As Stifu mentioned, you can force the controls using the ForeColor

sadly is a complex and large app to change the code to force a

Hi guys,

I have strage behaviour of mono Winform in a gnome theme that put
most of the font colour used by the system in white.

The gnome theme is mostly black, so all of the fonts in the
desktop are white (gnome bar, menus and so on...), the problem is
when I run a mono winform app, since the mono winform windows
don't take the gnome theme (it don't get blackish it keeps the
regular winform colors), but the winform fonts it do take the
white colour of the gnome theme and of course white on a gray
winfor window is hard to see/read...

So, I know that mono winform currently don't apply the gnome
theme, that's ok, but I want that the winform don't take the font
color neither to keep the regular black font color in the gray
winform window.

any way to chage/force that?, or I forced to use a black font
theme...?

I currently using mono and libgdiplus at version 2.4.2-3 on a
fedora 12 machine...

Thanks.

We had an issue but it was only happening for ToolStrip menus. Is that the
case, or is it happening with other controls as well? I remember testing
extensively with dark themes and the only issue was related to ToolStrip
(which has been fixed in 2.4/2.6/trunk, but didn't make it in the version
you have).

As Stifu mentioned, you can force the controls using the ForeColor property
(that applies as well for ToolStrip). Otherwise, there's no way to force our

If I'm not mistaken, setting the ForeColor of the Form should do the trick.

[Mono-winforms-list] gnome white font color and mono WinForm issue..

Hi guys,

I have strage behaviour of mono Winform in a gnome theme that put most 
of the font colour used by the system in white.


The gnome theme is mostly black, so all of the fonts in the desktop are

winform app, since the mono winform windows don't take the gnome theme

So, I know that mono winform currently don't apply the gnome theme, 
that's ok, but I want that the winform don't take the font color neither 
to keep the regular black font color in the gray winform window.
