This seems like something that should be fairly easily doable. Why don't you work out a patch?

Some decisions to make:

- What colours are we talking about? Would you want the labels to have their colour set independent of the dialog colours? If so, would you also want to configure the dialog colours?

- What names should be used for the colours?

- Where should all of these definitions be documented?

If you don't feel comfortable with the coding, perhaps you could answer these questions, and someone else may code it for you. I won't (I no longer have easy access to Windows), but I could help with the design.

Thanks again Duncan and Ivan,

I forward then the email to R-devel.

Summarizing, the dataedit options (in RGui preferences or RConsole) to
colouring the View output do not have effect on the background of the row
and column names (see https://ibb.co/Dkn2pVs <https://ibb.co/Dkn2pVs>).

Could this be implemented?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Iago

The row and column names don't appear to be controllable from that
menu, they seem (on my machine) to be displayed in the same colour as
the background of a dialog box, i.e. some kind of gray.  I don't
think R tries to control that colour, but perhaps some Windows
setting would change it.

This is entirely correct: the dialog uses the colour returned by
dialog_bg(), which is GetSysColor(COLOR_BTNFACE).

I think it could be a reasonable feature request to use an adjustable
colour for the row and column headers.
