Bug ID: 114147
Summary: Night mode/Invert colors filter
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: den_...@posteo.de
It would be nice if LibreOffice had some kind of "night mode" that when turned
on would draw the picture of the opened documents with inverted colors, so they
would have a dark background with light text on it.
I know about tools that reduce screen brightness on schedule, but that's not
it. I (and many other people) use dark interface theme, dark theme for my text
editor and a global dark style for Firefox (that makes all sites have dark
background with light text). After that, switching to a document with white
background really hurts my eyes.
So I was thinking, qpdfview has a hot key that inverts colors for the opened
documents, maybe the same could be implemented in LibreOffice?
Manually and permanently assigning background and font colors for the document
is not a solution because you would have to change them back and forth when you
work on the document with someone else. Besides if the document has some
paragraphs in different colors, manually changing it all would be a hassle.
So, something like a filter that applies a CSS that inverts colors in the
document (only visually, without changing the document). Even better if it
would invert colors for the text and tables and significantly reduce the
brightness of graphical elements (like images and diagrams) until they receive
mouseover event.
But the latter is probably complicated, and I understand if no one would want
to get involved in this. The first suggestion (total inversion of colors), on
the other hand, sounds like something pretty basic since it does not involve
any logic behind it. And it still would do wonders for the eyes, I know it from
my experience with the aforementioned qpdfview.
