There was another request for this here: https://www.accordancebible.com/forums/topic/24612-dark-mode/?hl=%2Bdark+%2Bmode I am not a fan but the utility of it is certainly useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Remember you can alway "invert colours" in Mac OS: System preferences >> Accessibility >> Select Display from left >> Click box for "Invert Colours" OR System preferences >> Keyboard >> Select Shortcuts from top >> Select Accessibility from left >> Click box for "Invert Colours" Then you can use the keyboard shortcut anytime.

This is an interesting tool, but a far cry from dark mode, and has horrible impacts to other apps that ARE in dark mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 This is an interesting tool, but a far cry from dark mode, and has horrible impacts to other apps that ARE in dark mode. Perhaps, but if you NEED Accordance in something like Dark Mode, set up a Theme that look good when inverted as a Quick Fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevM Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Dark mode would be fatastic. Especially as more and more apps in Windows, and Windows itself, now offer this. It's much easier on the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Meiklejohn Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Over the last month, I have become a huge fan of Dark Mode, I find it incredibly relaxing on the eyes. I would love to see it implemented into Accordance for Mac OS and iOS. Knowing the Accordance developers, I'd be surprised if they are not already working on it - I hope so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Arnold Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Microsoft Office just rolled out dark mode! Super nice. Chrome is on the way. I'm now more than 50% of the way to truly dark on Mac OS. Accordance would finish me out on this...! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Sepulveda Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 +1 In Accordance I'm already using white on black for all texts and tools, but the rest of the interface still remains bright-colored. I hope there can be an easy way to switch the rest of the interface to dark mode as well. "Come to the Dark Side...we have cookies!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muellereike Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 +1 With MS Word and Mojave in Dark Mode, Accordance is the only major app I use that isn't in Dark Mode. Would love to go all Dark! The back and forth is always quite the jolt. (One way to get your kick at night ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 +1 With MS Word and Mojave in Dark Mode, Accordance is the only major app I use that isn't in Dark Mode. Would love to go all Dark! The back and forth is always quite the jolt. (One way to get your kick at night ) But how do I set the Word, with one click, to black, so the paper is also black and the characters white? To invert the colors. Greetings Fabian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Meiklejohn Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Good question Fabian, only the program is inverted not the open documents... Still, we are probably veering of topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Arnold Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Anthony... right. The text Black is pretty good. But the toolbars etc... that’ll be awesome. Fabian, that’s what I wanted to do also . Here it is. Made my day. If you choose black it will invert the text etc. very nicely implemented. https://support.office.com/en-us/article/change-the-background-color-in-word-for-mac-650c206d-ca45-4fb7-88c0-e5e0882c9792 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteWings Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 There are mixed opinions about dark mode. It's easier on the eyes but at the same time it cause more strain. To make things even more complicated the eye is more sensitive to certain colors. Most sensitive to green, while blue gives most contrast. Etc. There are whole studies on that. I think the most ideal thing would be that the user can configure every color on the screen. Total control. That gives the user the opportunity to configure darkmode. Obviously Accordance could have several preconfigured profiles. It would be great if those profiles could be exported and shared on a special section of this forum. Same for layouts/workspaces. It's a fact everybody can pick a few colors, but it's also a fact some people are more gifted in picking colors that are very visible but not what I call retina-blasters You know bright yellow and lime green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Meiklejohn Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 WhiteWings, the Mac OS does try to give you some control of the level of warmth on the night shift setting. Although I'm not too sure how they play out in Dark Mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteWings Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Hi Paul, I have no Mac, but warmth settings are often part of monitor settings in the monitor itself and/or video card. While useful in some cases, it's not what I'm looking for because it globally affects all colors/ As an example: Make the library background red with green letters. Background of the Bible in orange with purple letters. The borders of the windows brown. Yeah, I admit, far from an ideal color scheme, but it shows what I mean. BTW, I'm aware there is already quite a bit that can be altered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully things will improve across all platforms as developers continue to appreciate the popularity of Dark Mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Smith Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) +1 for this request! I have set up black backgrounds for Scripture and resources, but I haven't figured out how to give a black background to the Instant Details pane. And of course the borders, title bars, etc. are still light grey. Chris Edited September 28, 2019 by Christopher Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unix Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 +1 for Accordance Dark Mode on Windows 10. I would favor implementation of earthen green, but the shade of it is up to You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
