It's not very good

Rather than a not-very-helpful comment, can you suggest ways in which it can be improved? In what ways is it 'not very good' ? If it was black text on a black background, I can agree with you, but I'm not sure on what improvements can be made by a 'not very good'. Should we just scrap it and start again?

@Sneffel, @chrisjlocke - theming and syntax colours should be better addressed when I push the commit for Settings Clean Up (see discussion #3317).

In what ways is it 'not very good' ?

The tabs rectangles aren't distinguishable because they don't have any edge around them until hovered.
Same problem with the buttons and selectable lists.
The icons are too small. So much that the ones without any text are incomprehensible without the hover-tooltip.
I don't like the greyish blue.
And these miscellaneous things:

@Sneffel ; What OS are you using, and what version of DB4S are you using? (Which version of the nightly...)
The small icons look wrong, but as you've seen screenshots of the application, I assume you know that.

Suggestion: could you add a way to use non-Dark mode (without having to switch the Desktop style)? Would be great! :)

• There's some parts that are still white in the main interface.. they should probs be changed to match the theme.
• The window's bar up top is still white also.
• The dark theme should be customisable. e.g. I personally prefer shades of grey instead of blue.

• The "selected" tab color needs to be customisable.
