How do I turn off Dark Mode in Sigmastudio+ 2.2? I can't for the life of me find the option, and the documentation is sorely lacking in navigability.

Hello David,

I have been requesting this feature from the start of development. Thanks for bringing this up so I can add your voice to the argument to be able to turn off the dark mode.

There is supposed to be a way to change the color of the canvas background, which is a start, but I cannot find how to do that either.

I find the color scheme to be not friendly to anyone over the age of 25.

Keep the comments coming. I will pass them on.

One of my comments has been implemented and that is the "drag" feature, as a default, will drag the canvas over instead of just being a lasso to select blocks. That is a nice feature to be able to drag the around the schematic but those of us who are so used to using SigmaStudio Rev 4.7 need to have the option. It is now in the project settings window to be able to drag with the mouse to select object or to drag across the schematic. So the programming team is listening to us and I am also hoping for the "legacy mode" to be a setting along with the "dark mode".

Thanks,

Dave T

I just installed it. Just useless in black.

How can I change ir to a useable diaplay mode?

Is there any progress on this issue? The dark UI has serious issues for visibility and there seems to be no way to make the UI follow the OS default settings or a predefined lighter, higher contrast scheme. We are nearly a year on, and if there was a light option in 2.1/2.2 it seems to have been removed in 2.3!

Hello tggiles,

I just overwrote my earlier reply. I had gotten info from one of the programmers but then someone else in the company informed me that Rev 2.4 is up on the web site!!! I just downloaded is and it does have the light mode!!!

SigmaStudio®+ | Analog Devices

Here is a screenshot

Open up the settings and you will see the Light Mode.

Chances are it will work just like it did for me. The settings screen opens up with it set to Light mode so it changes to light mode right when you open up the settings page!
