PDF reader suggestion

zy1904206 · July 29, 2021

I like the new PDF reader very much.The only problem is that my eyes are a little sensitive and I prefer to read with the background color more like the color of real papers.Is there any plan to add more background colors for users to select?

+1. Having an off-white (e.g., grey or sepia) option would be fantastic. (Currently using Zotero 6 beta on Windows 10)

Agree with this suggestion, I hope it is considered in the next version, i like this new pdf reader and its note function very much , but a all day reading make me a little uncomfortable.

++++++1. Too bright background will make eyes very tired

Allowing setting a less obtrusive background color for the pdf viewer would be great.

Please, add this functionality, or at least add a solarized option.

Note this great plugin for dark mode:

+1 Yes, that would be an excellent improvement for Zotero (an off-white, like grey or sepia). I hope it will be available soon... :)

+1 I also agree that having a gray or sepia background (customizable) would be great!

Now with dark mode adding 3rd mode - sepia/gray color would be great (and idea how PDF expert is doing it on MacOS) - as part of the app or as a plugin

+1 It would be great customizability of dark mode in Zotero 7 (as I already suggested in https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/454422/#Comment_454422)

+1 -- Please at least add a sepia option for the PDF reader (independent of light/dark user interface).

In another thread, I added my +1 for true theming via CSS, JSON, or TOML/YML configuration. If color settings were stored in such a file, I think the community would go crazy creating really nice themes.
