(ID: ) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 09/28/2024 **Update Sept 27, 2024** Windows seems to have changed something and now the GUI is dark like my overall dark theme. I'd like the Extensity GUI to remain light, but I can keep my desktop dark theme. Now that it is dark on dark it's too hard to see and even with my new 34 inch 1000R curved monitor I still can't see this as easily as before Windows changed something which now forced the background of the GUI to be dark with light grey text instead of the usual black text on white background.
