[Feature Request] Respect Windows 10 built in theme conventions

[Ayria]

Hey! I noticed that Quoll doesn't respect Windows 10 default theme conventions.

For instance, Windows 10 under Personalize> Colors> 'Choose your color' Drop down, you can select Dark. When in Dark Mode most programs and applications will follow the themes here. Dark Slate/Black with White/grey text.

Is it possible to make it respect Windows 10 theme colors like this?

I'd really love to have something like this. I'd like to use Quoll Writer but the bright white theme has been a deterrent because it hurts my eyes. :( A dark gray or similar theme would be greatly appreciated.

That's just java, it is hard to make it integrate with any theming of any platform, being it windows, linux or mac.

That's too bad. :( In that case, would a dark theme in the program itself be possible, instead of making it depend on Windows settings?

As @Rabioli said it's near impossible to tie a Java UI into the native look-n-feel.

However with v3 of QW it now supports stylesheets, so someone (it won't be me) might create platform specific stylesheets that integrate into the native look-n-feel. V3 does have a dark mode now though (although it still needs a little work) so that might help.

I didn't realise there's a beta version that already has this, thanks for letting me know. I installed it and it looks great! :)
