Dark mode in Rh8 wip

Hi Why not share experiences with a third party about a new user interface?
Rhino 8 WIP icons are not clear

We’re still very early in the process of developing support for dark mode. Many icons are auto-converted from a light mode version and we need to improve this algorithm.

How did you turn on dark mode?

at the top in the video is shown.

Hi Inju,
I don’t know why, but my Rhino8wip doesn’t find that command “setcolorscheme”
Any suggestion?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Jordi -

You need to download the plug-in using the PackageManager in Rhino.

Thank you, it worked out. :+1:

Out of curiosity, is this how Dark Mode is going to work in Rhino 8 for Windows? I thought it was going to be built into Rhino as a default option. Is Dark Mode only going to be available through the plugin?

I just installed it on my Rhino 7, at first gland it works well! :sunglasses:

I agree 100%, it gonna be a default option

We are building this type of functionality into Rhino 8. The color scheme plug-in was useful for us to prototype the concept.

Resurrecting this one as well. Since I couldn’t find a better one.

Some (many) icons still look wrong in the dark mode… is there a roadmap or something about this…? Should I get worried or is too soon? :sweat_smile:

@stevebaer, while Rhino + GH on macOS are in full dark mode (yeaaah), windows Rhino does support dark mode, while GH does not - the top window bar and icon bars remain white (which feels like a torch directed at my eyes at 2am :D) can this be tracked/fixed?
Only canvas color can be changed to a dark color…
