Suggestion: theme-specific dark variant background colors

Open dallas opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

Right now the dark theme variant just uses a generic dark gray background color of #222222 regardless of whatever theme color is in use. For a lot of the different theme colors, they end up clashing a bit with such a stark dark gray color. It might be nice to provide the same hue and a tiny bit of saturation to the dark theme variant’s background color.

For example, with the “iris” theme color selected and dark theme variant enabled, the dark purple sidebar callout and sidebar search background colors seem to fight with the dark gray color. If we instead introduce a little bit of that same purple color into the background color, hsl(284, 20%, 13%), for example, it ceases to clash and still looks really nice IMHO. It would also be nice to adjust the background for the Sabbath column to fit in as well. For this example I chose hsl(284, 20%, 8%).
