Thanks all for the replies.
First, I sure like the swiping functionality of Silica, especially the pull down/push up menus, page indicator, etc.. Still, my app is used in a cockpit. Many (light) aircrafts and gliders do have full "glass" canopies (like an F16).
This is an extremely bright light environment, so I need contrasting colors.
In the current app (ubuntu), buttons are light green (00FF00) with black text, strong warnings FF0000, and soft warnings orange.

Current problem:
I did push some of my own buttons in the Silica menu items, but
- I need more (light/color) contrast in the highlight section of each menu item (when it is selected);
- I am not sure if it allowed (non Silica stuff in Silica elements).

Also, the page indicators (left top: indicating that you are in n-th of x pages are to 'soft' for my app.
Thanks.

You can ofcourse alse use javascript and read current theme colors in there and 
slice them in r g b values, and make your custom var's with changed values. But 
the question is that can you give an example of where the default theme colors 
are not readable enough, and what kind of ambient theme are you using?

Hello,

You are not forced to use Silica to develop your application. You can, for
example, use your custom components (based on QtQuick default components, like
Rectangle or Text), to draw some of the UI.

For example, you can draw a white background by doing

Page {
         Rectangle {
                 anchors.fill: parent
                 color: "white"
         }
}

(Note that I did not tried that code, but it should work)
And add some other components, like Text, or other Rectangles on top of it.

Of cause, it won't integrate with Sailfish, but that's not a problem, since
you are not focusing on that, do you ?
True.

Hi,
My app will work in very (sun)light circumstances, so I need more
contrast between colours.
Is there a way to change (parts of the) the Silica theme?
Thanks.
