Is it possible to modify the window controls?

Hi there, I've been looking at yours theme and the Darcula theme, https://github.com/alecGraves/WolframNotebookDarculaTheme, and I wonder whether you can also modify the colors of the windows.
It seems that the author of https://gitlab.com/jakobneef/mathemeatica did it, but I don't really know how, so I'm letting you know of that and maybe you could find a way of extending your theme to the window controls!

@jpmvferreira do you mean like the application window? i'm not sure. from the links you sent, it looks like their computer desktop file bar is matched to the theme, so it's probably something that's controlled by the OS. but if you find out anything else please feel free to let me know 😄

ah, from the gitlab project description:

maTHEMEatica is a customizable Dark Mode for Mathematica. It generates a custom stylesheet and (for Linux) colors the menu bars accordingly.

so yes looks like that part is OS specific. i'm primarily a mac user these days so i wouldn't be able to add this and test. but it would be a nice enhancement

Before I forget, once I have the time to dig into this, it would also be nice if we have the power to change the menu bars to hide specific elements.
I'm not quite sure how easy it is to do this, I've send about 10 minutes figuring out how to hide the bottom horizontal bar that shows the zoom level and failed, so if this feature we can manipulate things at a lower level than that what is offered to the end user then that could also be an option.
