GUI Themes (Preferences | Coloring)

[Giorgio]

I like to use dark themes, but all the dark themes available have some problem, like text becoming unreadable in debug mode on breakpoint lines or similar.
Tried to import some coloring theme but couldn't get them to work (did something change in the past and I got old stuff?).
I managed to improve the situation choosing a coloring scheme and changing a few things but it would be better to have a proper "standard" dark coloring theme like I have in vscode.
Any suggestions?
Did I miss something?

Unfortunately MS decided to not ship a standard dark mode for all apps, like it's done on MacOS. So every app has to tackle it on their own and it's quite a mess. You can find some dark mode for PB like this one: viewtopic.php?t=78988&hilit=dark+mode

I started using solarized-dark a while ago and have never wanted to use anything else ever since.
