Calibre Night Mode?

I forgot that (I do frequent saves, so it does not stay there very long).

So at some point he might program in a fix.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Thanks to another thread, I discovered this hidden gem



That said, Kovid has adjusted the default icon ==>> https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...7ef048e0e19428

Found a small color issue with dark mode in one of the Remove Book options.

When doing :
Remove Book> Remove Files of a Specific Format...
the window looks fine, dark background light text.

However, when doing:
Remove Book> All Formats From Selected Books Except...
the background is yellow with grey/white text, making it nearly impossible to read (though the icon still makes it usable).
It's not exactly a huge problem, but I thought I'd point it out so it can get worked on when there's time.

Curious - why italic and not bold, like the File browser? I find I have to look for italic where as I can see bold.

There's a similar 'which one am I looking at' issue with the tabs in Preferences->Look and feel. The tabs across the top aren't too bad, but the tabs down the side of the Cover grid panel could do with some differentiation. See ==>> https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...50&postcount=5

Because bold causes the text to get cut off.
