Hi there and thanks for a great product, i.e. H7 that I pledged through Kickstarter.
Unfortunately I have a practical issue with OpenMV IDE on Windows 10, the dark mode does not really work for me with my monitor and eyes. To be able to see anything I need to turn the monitor brightness to maximum which is a pain when I need to switch to other applications where I can use close to 0 % brightness. I do have issues with other programs as well which are only providing dark mode, e.g. Spotify.
So, how do I change from dark mode in OpenMV IDE to a light mode?
Thx, I’ll give this a try. Not really sure what you meant with the renaming, do you mean that I’d first rename inkpot.xml to inkpot.xml.bak and then default.xml to inkpot.xml?
Tried this, but default.xml seems to be a empty shell and the colors are even harder to see, almost no contrast.
If I forget the renaming stuff and edit inkpot.xml, which is the tag for the black background in the editor part?
Is it e.g. this:
Probably not, I tested, did not see any change
So, some progress but very patchy. Unless I can change the black background color visible in the screenshot, this is not gonna work.
Should I touch some of the other xml-files?
Thx again, but unfortunately this is too much work for me, too many settings to try out, some of them not showing any impact. If someone who understands this better could develop a light theme I’d be grateful.
I’m now trying with dark.xml (renamed it to inkpot.xml) and it might be survivable, otherwise I guess I’ll need to use another IDE and copy/paste or import the file to OpenMV-IDE.
This picture is to show how a dark mode (with any application, not only OpenMV-IDE) is causing reflections for me and thus practical issues. Of course I can change to a dark T-shirt instead of a white, turn off the lights in the room etc, but that is more like band-aid on my problem and not solving the root cause
Thx, I copied from solarized-light.xml to inkpot.xml and this changed the line numbers, and the empty space between the editor window and the graphs on the right hand.
But it did not change the editor window itself, is there something I’m missing here?
