hi,
I use the "estuary" theme, have selected "maroon" as the colour, everything appears "red" accordingly. But when I search for something, search-result-page suddenly reverts to the standard "blue" colour. Why? Selecting the skin again or selecting a new colour or restarting does nothing. when i leave the search, everything is back in "maroon" red.
i have screenshots, but unfortunately i can't upload them here. but it should be reproducible.

That's because it's a separate addon (script.globalsearch) and not part of Estuary.

And that means? So ... the search "addon" still uses the Estuary theme, because it has the same style. But the color is wrong.

you're not understanding
this addon uses it's own skin xml files, not those from Estuary https://gitlab.com/ronie/script.globalse...type=heads
inside those skin files it has defined it's own colors https://gitlab.com/ronie/script.globalse...=heads#L13
so Estuary colors do not affect this addon

But why does the "search" look 100% like the Estuary skin? Apart from the colour?

because they share the same author

If, one day we change to a new default skin, then those addons will be updated to look like the new skin.
You can change the background colour, by editing the skin files in your own setup as mentioned in the previous post.

In Windows Explorer I can search my collection and it returns results having read file names of every individual movie folder.
A typical folder name
Avatar The Way of Water (2022).
Inside this folder is the file named
Avatar.The.Way.Of.Water.2022.HDR.BRIGHT.2160P.TrueHD.Atmos.7.1.
Searching I type .BRIGHT. and all movie file names containing .BRIGHT. are returned.
The Kodi info window shows file names and paths to those file names so, can this add-on scan that data and return a list of titles matching .BRIGHT. in the file (not folder) name?
