Basic Editor in Dark Mode
Hi! I would like to discuss the possibility of having Dark Mode support in LO
Basic Editor.
I am using LO 7.1.1.2 in KDE and my System Theme is set to Breeze Dark. In LO
all UI elements use system colors, except for LO Basic Editor. I have uploaded
a screenshot showing that, even on dark mode, the Basic Editor has white
background and default font colors.
So, the idea would be to implement it in one of the 2 possible ways:
1) Detect system colors and apply them to the Basic Editor, or:
2) Have a toggle in Tools > Options > LibreOffice > General with something like
"Use dark mode in Basic Editor" and then apply a predefined set of colors to
the Editor and Syntax Highlighter
Currently the Basic Editor seems to get its color from the "Document
Background" setting under Tools > Options > LibreOffice > Application Colors.
Hence, to implement dark mode support we would have to dissociate Basic
Editor's color from this setting, defining a new Color for "Basic Editor
Background Color".
Other text editors in LO such as Math's formula editor respond to dark mode as
expected.
