Hi, I found this group because I was searching for how to change to dark mode in yWriter (I'm super brand new, haven't done a single thing in it - or anywhere else yet really.)

The results brought up a thread from pre-covid on here that are screenshots of the menu choice inside a window titled Color, but i can't figure out how to bring up that window.

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to playing with the software and getting some projects underway!

In the current beta it's Tools - Edit Colour Scheme

The Beta has a lot more configurable areas than the release version. (I don't always make the beta a release version, but I do always use the beta version myself)

Thank you so much! looking forward to becoming familiar with the tools, and I love that there's a community as well. I'll have to figure out how to get myself involved here too! I'm socially motivated, so that aspect of any writing tool is of tremendous benefit to me.

Wait, so what you're saying is that I should use the beta version to get a dark mode? I did the tools-> edit color scheme but it only colors some border areas and the typing boxes are still stark white. Or am I still missing something?
