Description
In recent updates, the foreground color of title bar becomes too light to read when the window is inactive.

And the older versions looked like this, just a little bit lighter than active status.

I tried setting following properties in the settings.json, but it didn't help.
{
"workbench.colorCustomizations": {
"titleBar.inactiveForeground": "#fff"
}
}Then I found there is opacity: .3; of elements in title bar when the window is inactive.

I don't know why Microsoft set this. In older versions, the foreground color is set directly with the style property.

I strongly suggest not to set opacity of elements in title bar, for two reasons.
- The value of
titleBar.inactiveForegroundwon't be reflected as the actual visual result. - When the window is inactive, the foreground color of caption buttons will be
#9d9d9d, which is different from other elements' foreground color#454545.
