Hi Heiko. I think the main problem is that the color of the Basic Editor is the
same as the one used in the Background of Writer documents. I think these
colors should be treated separately, because users may want to keep their white
background in Writer/Calc documents while programming on a dark background in
the Basic Editor.
For example, most Writer documents are created with white-colored background in
mind, because later they'll be printed or exported to PDF. So, even on a dark
theme, the user may want to keep white background in Writer.
I believe the easiest way to implement this is to create a new color entry
named "Basic Editor Background Color" in Tools > Options > LibreOffice >
Application Colors. It could be placed near the other Basic color settings that
already exist in the dialog.
Later, we could think of implementing more convenient ways for the user to
apply a dark theme to the Basic Editor, by defining color presets for syntax
highlighting in light and dark modes.</pre>
