### Description The operating system allows you to automatically switch the day/night schedule depending on the time. Modern applications can automatically react to this and switch the colour scheme themselves. For example, the Visual stuid code tool enables this functionality by enabling the `window.autoDetectColorScheme` parameter, see https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/themes#_automatically-switch-based-on-os-color-scheme I understand that in NetBeans it is not possible to fully switch the color scheme without restarting, but it would still be IMHO possible to have a preferred "light" and "dark" scheme set and use it when starting/restarting the application. It wouldn't be fully automatic, but it would just be enough to turn the app off/on... And it would just launch straight away in the correct mode on startup, so when switching from work to home it would actually be fair enough :) ### Use case/motivation Using a bright environment in over-lit offices is more readable and less taxing on the eyes, while running Netbeans in white mode at night is like lighting a flashlight :) ### Related issues _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a pull request?
