Improving layout with dark theme

Wed May 15, 2019 1:44 am
I use a dark theme in my Mint with a dark theme.
By default, Skrooge is not optimized for a dark theme.
The Menu "Dashboard" show accounts name with a dark blue that is hard to read in a black background.
The same is for the "report" menu.

I can change some defaults colours from the option menu, but I can't change the dashboard.

Dark theme users might not be frequent, but maybe adding an option to choose between two default colours theme : default, dark theme optimized

Hi,

With a dark theme, the dashboard is like this:

You are right the dark blue is hard to read.

This is due to the fact that, in the dark theme, hyperlink are in dark blue and Skrooge uses the theme color for hyperlinks.

My proposal is to force the hyperlink color to the normal text color.
This will give this:

Only the underline and the mouse icon will allow to identify that the text is clickable.

Is this proposal acceptable for you?

I decided to do the modification: https://commits.kde.org/skrooge/2d06612 ... ee48fa43ab

Could you tell me for the report?

Nevermind for the report. Now, my reports have a white background, so I can read them without problem.
I probably changed something and I didn't notice. Sorry.

Hello Stephane,

I just installed latest version (2.20) and the font color is still difficult to read with a dark theme.
I will send you a screenshot
