I have to turn up my screen brightness significantly in order to read the program.
Why not offer a light theme?

To get the right size, I have to resize the window repeatedly using the resize button in the top-right corner.
The “dark” theme is too dark. There’s an issue with readability and… resolution.

It's true the darker version is a bit more dark, but on a well calibrated screen everything is visible. This is also the first report I get on this.Parisien_entraide wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2026 5:51 am New version

But I'll try to make it a bit less dark.

For the size issue, can you how me how how it look when you open WTools ? It should save the size that you closed it and restore it on next launch.Parisien_entraide wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2026 5:51 am New version

Tell me if 1.0.9.4 help a little for reading when using the dark theme. I made slight modification to it.

It’s definitely better now. The black is less black.
Otherwise, my screen is calibrated with a colorimeter using ICC profiles, and I have a device that allows me to switch between three modes: Office/Internet, Video, and Gaming. I work with screens all day, so on this computer I’ve lowered the brightness and contrast to make it less harsh on my eyes.
As for the screen resolution, The scaling is consistent..
When I launch the latest version, it opens by default at this size—which is good—and if I want to enlarge it, nothing gets cut off.

I'm mostly developing and testing on a sRGB calibrated OLED.
