When launched on Windows, the colors of background, texts are wrong. I’m using SwingBridgeTheme. Compose version - 1.6.0-beta02, jewel version - 0.14.1. What might be the cause of this?

Hi Pavel. You're in charge of background colours. See here: https://github.com/JetBrains/jewel/blob/main/samples/ide-plugin/src/main/kotlin/org/jetbrains/jewel/samples/ideplugin/ComponentShowcaseTab.kt#L53

As for the text colour, it's really hard to know without knowing what you're doing. I just know it works if you set up the theme correctly.

It's probably that you're overriding something you shouldn't

How do I use it correctly? SwingBridgeTheme doesn’t have any configuration parameters. And in the latter sample you don’t use any theme at all, as it seems

The background works, thanks!

The theme is set up by addComposeTab() and we don't need to do anything else

If you're not using that API, you should at least make sure you wrap all your Compose content in a JewelComposePanel
