I find that I have to change the font when using dark mode to be able to read text better. 

What font have you found works best in dark mode? I'm using Segoe UI right now. (changed from Logos 7 Default, which makes my eyes cross when using dark mode).

    I haven't changed fonts (from "Default") for working in Dark Mode and I haven't had a problem.

    EDIT: I just tried "Default (Logos 7)" and immediately switched back. Not doing that again.

    Default is Calibri, but Segoe UI looks really good. I switched. Thanks Ki!

    I tried Default too and still didn't like it.

    Kiyah,

    I can't find the font you reference. I'm using Default Sans Serif without difficulty.

    Maybe Mac and PC have different available fonts. I'm on a PC. I do have Default Sans Serif though. I tried that one but liked the Segoe UI one better, it's similar but the letters are a little bigger and spaced out ever so slightly more.

    Didn't occur to me. That would explain it.

    I've worked in dark mode in other programs...  In dark mode in Logos..  I find the white lettering to be too bold and the red lettering  to be almost also too bold.  I've tried a couple of fonts, no luck.  Does anyone know of a calmer font for dark mode?   I did try segoe UI.  

    Thanks

    Logos' dark mode makes my eyes tired no matter what font I use, I've found. I don't have that problem with other dark mode apps/websites. I think Logos just needs to tweak their dark mode. For now I've switched back to the Light theme.
