The dark/black theme in Calibre 4.1's built-in reader is hard to read

droopy · 10-14-2019, 08:25 PM

I have the latest version of Calibre installed on my Linux mint laptop. Version 4.1.

When I double click I bought from my Calibre Library, the built-in reading software opens up the ebook. I tried to change the theme for the reading software to dark theme, but it's very hard to read. What I mean to say is that although the back of his change to Black, the words of attacks are dark, which makes it hard to read. Why is it like this in the first place? And how can we fix this?

Sorry for the typo. I was using ”typing” with my voice. I meant ”words of the text”.

Anyway, with Calibre version 4.2, this problem is gone. Thank you for all your work sir.
