I updated to Kleopatra v4.3.0 from v3.x.x, and had to immediately downgrade to v4.2.0 due to the unusable dark mode: half the program is dark, the menubar and options are light (and so is the text therein). My Windows 10 v1709 is set to dark mode, and I can find no documented environment variable (e.g. similar to KLEO_HIGH_CONTRAST_MODE=0) to force Kleopatra and Okular into light mode so as to be readable. Please refer to attached screenshot for how it looks
Hi, sorry for the late reply. I had no test machine where I could test this case.
I’ve Windows 10 19045.4170 and Gpg4win 4.3.1 running on a machine and the dark mode looks good to me. When you tried it did your restart the computer? When switching to the dark theme without a restart the theme of Kleopatra also looked broken to me but a restart did solve the problem.
I will test v4.3.1 later. Is there way to force Kleopatra into light mode when the rest of the system is in dark mode? Some applications I prefer to be in light mode all the time, and this would also allow me to still use Kleopatra if dark mode is still broken.
No, there is no such option but you can share your wish on https://dev.gnupg.org if you like to.
