Sorry if it's prolly in a wrong section.
Greetings,
Before updating the browser to 27.4.0 (32-bit) the titlebar text and the Pale Moon button were showing fine in windowed mode using FT Deepdark theme (version 9.5.4), but now after updating the browser the button and the titlebar text simply disappears. Anybody know how to fix it?

What Pale Moon version were you previously using? You may want to try this add-on: Theme Compatibility Provider. It fixes themes that don't render properly on Pale Moon (including titlebar problems). But please read the disclaimer:
Please note that while this will fix the majority of issues with the above, some themes may still attempt to override these changes. While every effort has gone into fixing issues in themes generally, fixes for specific themes cannot and will not be accepted.

I was using PM 27.3.0 before updating and also I already have the addon installed.

Sorry for doubleposting, but can't seem to find the edit button in my posts
I've just discovered that turning on menu bar will make the titlebar text visible in windowed mode, but still that ofc would cost without the palemoon button.

Can't confirm there being any issue with this theme here. Have you tried disabling other extensions?

I've disabled all extensions and the problem still happens.

It may be Vista windowframe specific in that case.
Have you tried one of our native dark themes to use, instead?

I've tried Dark Moon, Darkness and LavaFox. They don't have that bug somehow.

Well, use a compatible theme that doesn't have the bug, then
The only one who can "fix" this is the FT DeepDark theme author.

So it's no choice but to have a compatible theme. At least this bug doesn't appear when you enable the menu bar

Yes, using a theme that isn't compatible can't "magically" be compatible, after all. You're using Pale Moon, so the only themes that are going to be fully compatible are our own themes. You may use others if you're lucky, but if not and the theme author doesn't want to make a Pale Moon theme out of their work, then that's just the way it is and you'll have to choose something else.
