Label: Yellow (default value I think):
  • Text color = Black: RGB = 0,0,0
  • Back color = Yellow: RGB = 239,220,74

Could fix the 2nd case. The first was too rare in relation to the hardness to fix it.

That's the standard yellow label. The yellow is a bit darkened in DM but the text is still black here. :?

All my labelled items are displayed white on [back color] (whereas they're all configured black on [back color] in Configuration):

Yes. I found that too extreme.
This is about the white text becoming darker as well.

I'd like to get a chance to change this as well. The contrast suffers quite a lot (for me)...

Sorry, off-topic

What are those colored dots next to the files icon?

Date circles. Click on a date column, select "No Graphics" at the bottom

Thanks, wouldn't have guessed a date indicator was displayed on the "Name" column. Neat!

I could reproduce it now. Interesting case. Anyway, should be fixed next.

Hey, one of my favorites features. And looks so cute in dark mode!
BTW, you can hover the date circle and see some info in a tooltip...

Well, I have to agree with the others, this unfortunately is a deal-breaker for me. I am back to using light mode with my specified list colors. It's too important to have these settings, I don't want to trade this flexibility for getting a dark framework.

Is there some technical reason the individual list settings could not be honored?

Not at all, only aesthetical. But you seem to have configured some of your interface dark already. That won't work so well together with the automatic dark mode.

It's great that you were able to accomplish dark mode as a toggle without a restart (a true mood accommodator). Thanks. :tup:
