Hi, A question has come up on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/darktable/permalink/1200810193417890/) about theming. I answered with a link from the announcement of 2.6.0 (https://www.darktable.org/2018/12/darktable-26/), which provides the CSS for a white and a grey theme, adding the following: "[regarding the white theme] Note that with such setup, images will look darker, hence the aspect of the GUI may push the user to over-expose the images. A white background is interesting for people working on images meant to be displayed on white background, though. To avoid being influenced towards over- or under-exposing pictures, a grey theme like the following is much more advisable" - and then the article provides a grey theme.
So, returning to the question: if this a recommendation for print-oriented people (whom a white theme may push to overexpose images)? The text mentions underexposure, too, which I'd link to a very dark UI. If it's for everyone, and it is "much more advisable" (than the default black or a custom white theme), why is it not the default with 2.6? Thanks in advance, Kofa ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
