Does this stop you from using Cursor

Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor

Thanks for the report, I’ve passed it on to the team.

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

The Agents vs Editor tabs are sometimes invisible depending on my color customizations

Steps to Reproduce

Set these settings in VSCode
“workbench.colorCustomizations”: {
“titleBar.activeBackground”: “#122e50”,
“titleBar.activeForeground”: “#eeeeee
},

and if you are in light mode, you will not be able to make out the new Agents/Editor tabs as per screenshot

Expected Behavior

The Agents | Editor tab should use titleBar.activeForeground or at least a modified version thereof rather than hard-coding the color separately

Or there should be a separate color for those two links we can put in our workbench.colorCustomizations settings ourselves
