Background color of Musescore

• Oct 24, 2019 - 22:52

Hello everybody

I'm proudly using Musescore as I firmly believe such programs have to be opened source and accessible to everybody.

My concern is the background color of Musescore. I hardly work with the light theme because of my eyes, and at the same time I find the brown-dark theme horribly UGLY.
With appreciation to the huge team effort made to make Musescore what it is today I wonder whether it is so difficult to add more attractive themes.
Please take it into consideration in the future.

All the best

Unlikely to happen, but on Edit > Preferences > Advanced you can change all colors, and on Edit > Preferences > Canvas the background color

You can change the colors of everything except the main theme color, which is restricted to Preferences > General > Theme > Dark/Light.
This is what I want to change.

Sorry but I can't understand your answer; "Unlikely to happen". Why? Is giving Musescore users such option too difficult?

It sounds like there might be a problem with your system configuration or your monitor. There is no brown at all in MuseScore's “Dark” theme; there are only various shades of pure gray.

Perhaps if you manage to get your colors displaying properly you will find MuseScore's Dark theme less unpleasant.

This is a screenshot of how it looks on my monitor. There is no problem in color display I guess.
Regardless of what color it is, it is extremely faint, pale, unpleasant to the eyes, and non-professional.
I have utmost respect to those who work to keep this program alive and running, and based on the answers I got here I have no choice but to accept it the ways it is. But this is not OK at the end!
