I'm not familiar with themes and just tried out the dark theme. It looks nice and images are much more colourful.![:)]( "Smile")
What is irritating is that some colours are not set to dark. This doesn't looks so nice and when using "Format colours" the filenames in the filelist are very hard to read because the font colour is white and no longer black.
From what I can see all the colours in XnView's settings (e.g. Preview backcolour and Thumbnail cell) remain untouched. This forces the user to manually change the colours to have a really consistent theme.
Suggestion:
I'd suggest that a change in the theme also changes the colour settings including format colours.
Question is what to do if the user has modified the default colours in the settings. Just overwrite his/her settings? Or change only those values that still have the default value?
