Ok, "just for you" and other potential Dark Mode users, I have added a command line flag which needs to be set in the .ini (and .ini.orig) file using

    -Dtopbraid.suppressBackgroundColor=true

This will go into 6.3.0 and will stop the background color from becoming yellow while editing.

PS: As a primitive form of code review, I am attaching the diff of this change

Hello Holger,

Thank you for the reply. I've been able to adjust everything else in terms of fonts, sizes and fore and background colors with currently available preference items, so for me this is the only/remaining issue.

A setting would be excellent and I'm sure would be of benefit to others.

Thank you for your help,
Chris

Chris,

this color is hard-coded in a static final variable org.topbraidcomposer.ui.util.ResourceEditorColors.CHANGED_BACKGROUND_COLOR. I could try to add a setting to allow you to get past this with the next update, yet I am worried this will just be one problem among others. The whole UI just isn't designed for what you're after, so we're just patching things up as we go.

Do you think this is going to be the last thing that is preventing you from using TBC?

Hello,

I have a mostly satisfactory dark mode working in TBCME 6.2.4 on Mac OSX 10.14.6 with the DevStyles plugin.

I particularly need a dark mode (or at least not a glaring white background on various views) for my eyesight.

The issue I’m having is in the forms when I want to enter text or change text in a form field such as “rdfs:label” or “rdf:type” and so on. When typing in the text field the background switches from “black” to “light yellow” (the same color that is used in the "TBC Classic Default”) while the font color remains “white” which makes the text nearly invisible, defeating the dark mode:

Maybe someone has a hint of how to solve this.

Thanks,
Chris
