I've been using freerouting with KiCad for quite a while.

One thing that has continuously caused me problems is the bright white appearance of the window surrounds, menus etc.

I tend to use dark themes on my machines, as they are much easier on the eye for me. On starting freerouting, I feel like my eyeballs are almost being burned out by the sudden brightness of the window surrounds etc, and it makes seeing the graphics on the canvas difficult. I did a quick little experiment, using windows from another application to mask out the super-white window borders, menus etc and found the graphics on the canvas did indeed appear more visible.

Is there a way that that freerouting can be either themed, to allow a more comfortable user experience, or are there some some settings somewhere that I'm missing that will allow me to reduce the brightness of the window borders, header, menus, etc ?

Alternatively, can I be pointed to just where in the scource thes colours could be changed/set ?

  • I've spent a while browsing the code and can't seem to find anything along those lines.

Many thanks.
