PDF reader dark mode should have an option to keep the images as is, not making it negative
As the title says, when using dark mode in zotero pdf reader there should be 3 options:
- Full dark mode (current).
- Dark mode on background and pages but not on images (images should be kept as in the original article, not doing the negative, it should help to create a white border (5-10px) around the original image to avoid problems if the image has a black background. I understand that this involves messing up with the pdf renderer, and it might not be possible, then the second option is to create an option in the context menu "Show original image", which opens a window to view the original image
- Only the background in dark mode, the file in the original color.
The main motivation behind this is in many microscopy, histology and immunofluorescency images coloring matters.

There is a better dark mode scheme in Midnight Lizard (an extension of Chrome/Edge), which can set the brightness of images in the dark mode to just make them dimmer.
Let us stop our images being inverted in dark mode.
(Also lmao @ro255 for describing the experience as "flashbang myself")
Changing the "style sheet" and swapping the font color with the background color and vise versa should also be more performant than using a negative filter and rendering everything opposite

For some reason, in the annotation panel, images still appear in negative if you’re using the dark theme.
