The time is right for Aeon Dark. I love it

So if you want light Showcase and dark Multiplex like before, you just set it up and it stays that way, or vice-versa. The fullscreen info page can then adjust its own setting on a window-to-window basis.
Definitely the way.
Quote:added: *very* early Night/Light feature; changed: all textures optimised
Light and Night themes can now be selected for Showcase, Multiplex and
Stripshow views. However, the textures for Dark Showcase and Light
Multiplex/Stripshow are very basic and should not be seen as production
quality. Scrollbars have yet to be themed so expect issues there. In
short, it might be best to avoid these themes until they're more
developed. It is currently not possible to theme fullscreen info based on
current view/theme, so only the light version is currently available.
All textures were passed through PNG Gauntlet which reduced their size
somewhat with no loss of quality. Weather backdrops were also changed from
BMP to PNG, saving about 12mb in total.
