Steps to reproduce
- Open the settings UI
- Navigate to the Startup page
- Look at the "Launch size" or "Launch parameters" expander
Expected Behavior
The Windows Community Toolkit Gallery shows what SettingsExpander and SettingsCard looks like. This should be the styling on it:
No hovering:
Hover over header:
Actual Behavior
In the SUI, which uses the ported versions of SettingsExpander and SettingsCard, the color/transparency looks slightly different:
No hovering:
Hover over header:
I believe this has to do with the background material used in the settings UI. Like, I think we're not using mica and the WCT gallery is, or something like that.
