Canary 82.0.456.0 custom theme tab color
I'm using "Slate" theme from Chrome Store in Canary 82.0.456.0 in Dev 82.0.446.0 Canary's inactive tab color is not normal, it should be dark and not light

Hi,
that is because of the recent design changes in Canary
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/new-feature-in-edge-canary-new-dark-design-for-tab-strip/td-p/1231107
The theme is simply not compatible with the new changes.
it's made by google primarily for chrome browser.
there are other themes like this that are compatible:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nebula/hlmflgnnmmojlnbmaokpfcjdkhkjbnok
so this is a problem of themes and not Edge browser.
Microsoft needs to open a themes section in their Addons store
https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/category/Edge-Extensions?hl=en-US
and let developers and people create themes and put it there, that are compatible, fully, with Edge browser.
