Can I change the color of my Active Tab?

Good morning. 

 

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the color of just the active tab at the bottom (as seen in the image)?  I want to make it so it stands out more.  I looked through the OPTIONS -> DISPLAY -> COLORS (under Display File Tabs) and could not find anything.  

 

As always, thank you!!!

This is a general AutoCAD Question, perhaps you get more answers here.

But as far as I know, you cannot modify the colors for the AutoCAD color themes (dark or light)  individually.

But the color of the tabs is not windows color scheme related.

Hi @lunarfaze ,

 

I don't think it's possible. You can submit an Idea here.

I've seen a color theme file(s).  They end in .xbel.  You can open them with a text editor and make changes, if you know what you're doing.  The colors are defined by their hex value.  I don't know if the tab colors are in there as its not very descriptive as to what the color values are for.
