Is it possible to do a night theme in Logos?

Hey everybody,

I do most of my research/sermon writing at night. I would love to be able to work with a "night theme" in Logos (like many reader apps, where it makes the background black and the text white, rather than visa versa). I tried using the Win7 High Contrast themes, but this produced white text on white background.

I looked through the Logos settings, and only found light colored resource backgrounds. Perhaps that means this isn't possible yet.

If that's the case, can this idea go to the "suggestion" programmers?

Thanks!

Brian

I know that it has been suggested, but you can always make it again. Use the "suggestions" forum.

On Mac it is.[:)]

It puzzles me why someone would want this. I find white text on a dark background difficult to read. Nevertheless, if you want it, go for it.

You wouldn't get me switching to a MAC for that.

Rather than setting each app you use to a "night mode" try some software that does night mode for your whole computer. F.lux is one such. It changes the color cast of your screen to a more amber/orange tone which omits the blue light from the spectrum and is more relaxing for the eyes and brain in the evening. Gets you ready to go to sleep at a reasonable time of night. Good for healthy circadian rhythms.

Another thing you can do if F.lux doesn't float your boat is wear blue-blocking glasses.

I'm trying out the F.lux program now. Neat concept - hopefully it will be helpful for the whole family.

Only trick is, come sermon writing time, I hope it makes things easy on the eyes (which it seems to be, and makes Logos look "softer"), but I definitely DON'T want it to lull me to sleep. Otherwise I don't know what kind of sermon will result.

Possibly an incomplete sermon

Brian, I use night mode for Logos quite a bit! I use a mac and a program called nocturne that I'm not sure is available for windows or not, but here's a good forum discussion on it that has recommendations for both windows and mac: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/53995.aspx

Thanks Rosie. Pretty cool (or, uh, warm). I'm giving it a try.
