Day/Night Icons for darkmode


Recommended Posts

Not sure why anyone would want a button to change from the Light UI to the Dark UI and vice versa

Don't most people just choose which they prefer and leave it at that?

If you could explain why you have a need for such a button your request may gain a better understanding of your thinking/workflow re this request

E.g. Do you have 2 users using a device and one prefers the Dark UI and the other the Light UI or do you actually switch the interface depending on if it's night or day, etc?

 

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

I can't really see a need to be able to constantly flick between modes; it's just a couple of clicks to change dark and light modes in Preferences when you want to.

In these context I work with a window behind of me, during day is light, during night is dark. Just this. But I don´t know numbers of users that would like this resource. It´s just a suggestion.

Regards team,

In terms of responding to external conditions, it would be more appropriate (than manually switching each application) to respond to system settings and its automatic / manual day / night mode switching. Then the settings in Preferences would become added - Day / Night / Automatic mode.
