Program background colours

July 26, 2025
We're following the advice of the UK Dyslexia Association style guide and using dark blue text (#260c45 was our choice) on pale background for all our text.

Unfortunately Presenter defaults to a black background for the program as a whole. It's fine when we're editing a service as our pale background is in use. However, when we're editing the text of an individual slide, we're looking at dark text on a black background and it's really hard to read and see what we're doing.

Is there a way of changing the Presenter background similar to the 'theme' options for e.g. email programs, some of the MS programs? I believe there's a number where you can choose for your working background colour to be light or dark.

Thank you!

Yes, there is! Go to Settings > Interface, choose the checked Transparent pattern background, and click Save. Using this background, it can be hard to see the cursor, so it's not perfect, but at least you can see dark text well.

Thank you, that's really useful. It's so much easier to work with now.
