You're welcome. I'm glad you found a solution.

Well, after playing around I found out that replacing DefaultTheme by None

Too complex :-) There are several reasons for the complexity:

- Power: Leo allows per-file (.leo file) settings.
- History: Themes were a late graft on existing settings.
- Qt: Qt settings are a mishmash of style-sheets and programmatic options.

So now we're kinda stuck. Nobody wants to change leoSettings.leo
unnecessarily. Once things work, all of us, including you, just want to
move on ;-)

Would I change things if I were designing settings from scratch? Maybe, but
that's a moot point.

I do know that Félix's Leo plugin for vs-code will use vs-code's settings
machinery. That's perfectly appropriate. Settings files are not the heart
of Leo.
