Nice - I wonder if you then should also make the icons black?

Fweeb · June 22, 2019, 2:43pm

I considered making all of the icons Black, but I still wanted to have some differentiation for people working within the theme (or for color printing), so I leaned toward trying to keep the theme within the same hue ranges as the default theme and only focus on value adjustments.

I’d really like the ability to easily invert the toolbar icons, but as we’d discussed on blender.chat, that’s not easily done at the moment.

Hy there! If you consider blender default themes are too much darker or brighter, this is your theme. This one is the result of had being working several months in UI themes. At the same time blender 2.8 was redefiying its interface, I was recopiling some experience making UI Themes. The point is create a really well balanced theme. UI needs to be neutral and secondary to the viewport. So the key had being stablish a jerarqy of highlighting extremly accurated that helps user to focus better inside all UI information. Feedback welcome

@Paul

unselected vertices too dark and mingle with the dark background

Paul · June 30, 2019, 9:35am

Thank you very much for pointing that out. And you are absolutely right. I’ve changed the vertex color to a mid gray for improved visibility. I’ll update the theme right away.

Where are the chosen themes in 2.8?
This thread was for nothing?

SimonStorl-Schulke · July 12, 2019, 8:53pm

I guess the assset manager will take care of it when it arrives(?)

xan2622 · July 20, 2019, 4:32pm

I like your dark theme except the rounded corners of buttons.
How to reset them back to the default blender 2.8 style?

Paul · July 21, 2019, 9:19am

Thank you for your feedback. I’ve tighten up some of the round corners except for the option button And it looks better. Check it out: blender_pro.xml (40.7 KB)

I will update the theme post and screenshots later.

The Face Angle Text is too dark (it’s deep blue) to clearly read Indices numbers.

For example, enable Developers Extras in Preferences > Interface, then tick the checkbox Developer Indices in the Viewport Overlay dropdown menu.

A color like FFD290 works well.

Paul · July 23, 2019, 1:48pm

Thanks for pointing this out! Learned something new today. The color looks great!

I’ve also changed some other overlay colours. Check it out: blender_pro.xml (40.7 KB)
