So, to make it abundantly clear what I am asking for, here is an example picture edited (poorly) in a drawing software:
At left, you can see my current TexStudio look: the are where real text is indeed entered had its colors properly customized with a .txsprofile
object. However, the menu toolbar, the tabs area and so on are still colored in light-gray, while I would like them to have a darker look (as in the image to the right).
Is it possible to achieve that somehow?
I am aware that plenty of questions have been asked here and elsewhere on the topic of TexStudio's colors. For example:
However, none of them really addressed the main point at hand: how to customize the colors of TexStudio's menus, toolbars, etc (not the colors of the text-editor part of TexStudio). The colors of the text-editor of TexStudio can be modified directly at the Syntax Highlighting options in the Tools>Configurations
menu. However, rarely something is said about the other parts of TexStudio.
When a question pops up about this, it gets either no answers or very low-detailed reactions. For instance:
I realize that what TexStudio is doing is probably just retrieving the operational system color for it's menus, tool-bars and such. My question is whether there is anyway to bypass that and customize such colors.

TeXstudio is built on QT which acts as a canvas between the editor settings and the system settings. There are ways to change the underlying colours by adding a "stylesheet" so I have shown the example for changing the scrollbars in this answer

It is possible to change much more but you will need to follow the links to brew your own or find a larger set of changes.
