Comment 9 for bug 1357672

I can confirm this problem still exist in Win7 (Windows Classic style) for Inkscape 0.92, GIMP 2.8.20, Claws Mail 3.15.0. However, this does not happen with Sylpheed (latest versions in general), which is an e-mail client also built on top of GTK 2 port for Windows (http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/en/), where all selected menus have white text on dark blue background.

Any clue what might be different there to succeed ? The "MS-Windows" gtkrc in /share/themes is practically the same as for others listed.

In Inkscape (for example), by deleting these lines from MS-Windows gtkrc theme

  engine "wimp"
  {
  }

the menu becomes Tango style, which is not the same as changing only the ink color in menus.
