Hi,

You can set the primary and secondary colors for a gradient fade of the title 
bar here: Control Center -> Appearance & Themes -> Colors. To set a solid 
color, just set the same color for both "Active Title Bar" and "Active Title 
Blend". If this still produces a gradient fade, that would mean that the 
window decoration you are using does not honour the color settings and uses 
hard-coded ones, or has a configuration option for itself (seen in Appearance 
& Themes -> Window Decorations). As far as I can see, the B II should work 
just fine after you change the colors.

Best regards.
