Thanks, GG; that's what I was wondering, and it'll be a nice stop-gap until Andy's update.

That's unfortunate. I seldom use the Consolidated Window, so it doesn't really affect me that much. I'm content to wait until Andy has the 100% DP8 compatible versions ready.

I found that some of the themes experienced this worse than others. Gotham's tabs are still clearly visible, though dark. I keep the Control Panel floating, so that it can go from Space to Space, so there's no problem with it. Only the new embedded CP has trouble with the old themes. The floating one still looks exactly as it did before. I'm back in AmpGUI almost as if nothing changed. What a relief!
