Is a dark theme for OpenGL desirable?

[thokra]

but code is still unreadable

In what way? Just posted some code and it looked just like the old school code.

Khronos_webmaster: While we're at it, do you intend to add some syntax highlighting goodness?

in this thread all code is white on white:

Yeah, I'm an idiot. I should have used the dark theme.

Confirmed. With the dark theme, code is not readable.

Edit: I just saw in http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boa...00#post1237400 that some code actually is rendered in a way you can read it well, while some posts earlier the problem with "white-on-white" code also applies. Weird.

Edit 2: User profiles seem to have the same problem as code sections.

I think that post simply does not use code markup.

Could we get the code markup fixed for dark theme, please?

I think it does. Why else would it be formatted inside a box overwritten with Code: ?

[tksuoran]

Oh I see now. I was looking at the post your link took me, the one by PiouPiou, while you probably meant the post by Dan Barlett.

The latter one uses COLOR=#333333 markup inside the code markup, which explains why it is readable. I guess that color markup was manually added?

I am sorry to bring this up again, but the dark theme is still broken in regard so code tags...

[tksuoran]

Bump. Could you please try to fix this?

[thokra]

What's still broken for you? The code tags seem to work fine now. So do comments and normal text.
