Dark/Night Mode for Metadata Wizard? #155

Open MnashUSGS opened 2 years ago

Email ask-sdm@usgs.gov if you wish to contact the USGS Science Data Management (SDM) team’s application support inbox directly with bugs or feature requests. Otherwise, use the template below.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I like using dark/night modes for all programs, as it's better for my eyes both during the day and if I ever work when it's dark out.

Describe the solution you'd like A dark/night mode option for Metadata Wizard.

Describe alternatives you've considered I've tried using High Contrast (Black) settings for Windows display and turning down brightness on my monitor but the majority of the program is still bright.

@MnashUSGS thanks for the note. We'll consider this as a 'nice to have' potential feature in the future. We're likely entering a maintenance mode for the near term, but we'll file this away. The GUI components are largely done in PyQt, so it's largely a matter of what is supported there, and the scope of implementing something across the app. A quick search looks like there may be some options, but we'd need to research further.
