nope. i have the latest version and once you cascade the windows to see the child windows, there are the old style borders 🙂 

:S  The OP made that clear.  I was referring to scroll bars.

3 differing styles in CbB Track View:  Even with Theme Editor they can't be made to look the same.

Maybe this image makes it clearer. (some people click to minimize the application instead of the project window). Yes, Sonar behaves in a very unusual way in this case. I work with Photoshop, and when I minimize an image window, the graphical appearance always remains that of the main application. Of the dozens of applications I work with, only Sonar behaves this way… it’s a pity.

Not sure what you are referring to. The title bar is highlit to show the current window. Standard windows MDI behavior.
Also project windows cannot leave the application frame. Also standard behavior.

it's more about the style of the child windows - borders and scroll bars - looking line Windows 7 vs matching the parent window.

I just use Winaero Tweaker to make the windows borders as small as I can make them.

Winaero Tweaker can aslo make your scroll bars narrower as well.  However, I would not set your scroll bars to the minimum, as this can hide part of the Transform tool button in the PRV.

The problem here is that the look of the parent window is not the same as the look of the child window, which is light blue like it was in Windows 7 (pay attention the the pink arrows).
If that is really a problem? Of course not, but for the sake of consistency it should be corrected. I’m a graphic designer, and an “inconsistency” like this could never slip through...
