UI Dark Mode Theme
Hi all,
I am looking to learn this software as I've heard it's very powerful (albeit a steep learning curve). However, the UI is really hurting me. I have a corneal dystrophy that makes me very sensitive to light, so white UIs are borderline impossible for me to use for more than an hour at a time without needing a substatial break.
Does anyone know if it is possible to change the UI colour? I tried googling but nothing turned up.

Hi, the only element of the UI which is white is the screen background. It's also the colour that the UI uses to overwrite the screen when you erase, move, or otherwise change the an entity, so white generally stands out.
This is a fixed value in every drawing, so when you start a new drawing, you'll still get a white background.
However, you can change this background colour on each indivicual drawing, and it will remember the setting.
To do this, select View Window Colour from the View menu, then right click and select a background colour from the dialogue box.
CC4 will have a dark mode for the interface, but the default background colour will still be white.
I hope this helps.
