Title: Can the IDE be made dark?
Post by: Kelvin Shadewing on July 25, 2018, 04:42:27 am

I've found a way to make the editor dark, but then the high contrast against the rest of the IDE's GUI just messes with my eyes and makes it hard to focus on my code. Is it possible to make the whole thing dark like how Atom looks?

Yes install a dark theme for your operating system. We use the global system theme.

I tried that, but parts of the IDE remain unchanged, like toolbar handles, gray space between panes, and neither the editor theme or the GTK theme seem to affect the tree view or the log.

Have you restarted C::B? Can you show a screen shot? What OS? What GTK version?
