# Vivado Dark Mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [!WARNING]
|
|
> This is demo code to show dark mode for any light mode application on Windows is possible, the code is not polished for a final product and the current code does not handle all edge cases.
|
|
|
|
This will eventually become a program to make any windows application dark mode, stay tuned.
|
|
|
|
This demo uses the Windows magnification API to invert a window and make it dark mode.
|
|
|
|
## Bugs/Notes
|
|
|
|
- When switching windows, it will momentarily flash. This is because of some latency in handling the window foreground event, I am not sure if it is possible to improve on this to make it less noticeable.
|
|
- Window title is hardcoded, meaning if the dark mode program was started after the window title does not match "Vivado 24.1" (for example after opening a project) it will fail.
|
|
- Currently it just inverts the program, but the magnification API supports transformation matrices so it is possible to use a different color mapping that might be better.
|
|
- Currently this handles sub-windows (such as save dialogs) by making the magnification window have the maximum Z order. This simplifies things, but also means if another window is over the active window it too will be inverted
|
|
- Creating magnification lenses for each window with the Z height 1 above the relavant window would fix this issue.
