Yes, the issue is still reproducible on Windows 7.

Does it still look exactly like in https://streamable.com/0hxx5s? I couldn't find any code currently implementing that kind of styling for toolbar buttons in this toolbar.

It looks exactly like the screen recording from above. The hover highlight is darker on the tabs comparing with the hover highlight of the navigation buttons.

A different color is expected / intentional, and wouldn't be limited to Windows 7 I don't think. The recording however seems to show a vertical gradient on the buttons, as opposed to a flat color.

The vertical gradient on the buttons isn't visible anymore.
