Tested on:
Everything (1.5a) 1.5.0.1366a (x86)

Fonts and Colors
Item: Tabs
Item states: Selected
Background color: [green]

For some reason the color goes to "Close tab" button.
Only after setting the Noraml color too, the Selected color is fixed.

Can't reproduce this. After setting Selected color to green:

Tested again. The bug is still there.
Try x86

Some info as to why it works for you and doesn't for the op
If you select from the windows setting the default color mode for apps to be dark,then Everything "User Default" will be as if you use the "Dark" theme in Everything

When the default color mode(windows settings)is set to light and Everything is using the User Default\Standard,then changing the background color for the selected tab will only affect the color of the close button while hovering over it

If the windows settings is Light and you set the theme in Everything to be dark,then changing the selected tab background color WILL be changed properly

To put it simply,when everything is in white\light mode,the option to change the selected tab background color does not work properly

Thank you for the issue report Stamimail,

Everything will try to render the tab control with the stock Windows Visual Styles.

Everything will render the tab control itself if you:

• Use the dark theme.
• Set an accent color.
• Set a custom normal background color.

I will add "Set a custom selected background color" to this list for the next alpha update.

The issue you see is Everything rendering the tab control with the stock Windows Visual Styles and the custom button rendered with your selected background color.

The next alpha update will correctly show the selected tab in your desired color.

Good find, @vsub! Should have thought of that myself, but light mode is apparently in my blind spot (all dark mode here).

Thanks!
