--- Comment #6 from Rafael Lima <rafael.palma.l...@gmail.com> --- Hi! I think the dark theme should focus on UI elements and not on the document background in Calc, Writer and Impress/Draw. The reason is that, even on a dark theme, many users will be interested in using a white background in Writer documents, because it's the way the document will later be published (in PDF) or printed in a white sheet of paper. Hence, having a white background allows the user to better see how the document will be rendered when exported/printed. Just to illustrate, dark theme on MS Office still uses white background for documents: https://www.techowns.com/microsoft-word-dark-mode/ https://www.tenforums.com/microsoft-office-365/41871-office-2016-latest-update-black-theme.html For example, in Bug 141566 having a color for the Basic Editor (following system theme) makes sense because the Basic code is not meant to be printed or exported to PDF, it is just programming code. But having dark background for documents may end up annoying some users who'll want to stick with white background even on a dark theme. What we could do is add two new themes. Instead of just one dark theme, we could add: - Dark Theme with White Document Background - Dark Theme with Dark Document Background (which is what Heiko has already uploaded) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
