Thank you for the help with the Solarized color themes in my other post, although I can't find the reply on the forum now...

When I try to import the color theme into Midnight Lizard, I find myself having difficulties in saving the theme. 

Steps I do:
1. open Midnight Lizard on Chrome
2. click on Color Themes
3. click on Import button
4. file selector shows
5. select the json file
6. click Open button
7. dialog box appears

expect to do:
8. close the dialog box
9. save the color theme

but I can do step 1-7, then the dialog box disappear in less than 1 second and it closes by itself. I can't even read the text in the dialog.

You can see what happened here: https://youtu.be/4cmQrbhpSlA 
I didn't touch the keyboard during the recording of the video, the dialog box & ML popup close by themselves.

Midnight Lizard 8.7.3

I try on 2 versions of Chrome:
Chrome (Canary) 65.0.3320.0
Chrome 63.0.3239.132

Hi Jack!
I accidentally replied directly via email instead of forum.
I've heard about this 1 second popup problem already, but I can't reproduce it neither now nor before.
Probably it's related to the underlining operating system so I won't be able to reproduce it on my windows machine.

But even without importing you can recreate this color scheme manually. You need to correlate fields from the file to UI elements in the settings popup like this:


And then go to [Color schemes] tab and Save a new scheme:

Now you can use this scheme on any website or set as a default.


Best regards
