I have been having trouble with the color scheme of SM after about an hour, the current appearance is just to bright for eyes after about an hour of exposure. I search to see if I could tone it down abit but did not see any controls for this. It would be a nice quality for the program since those that are working most likely spend a good deal of time in front the monitor. Cubase, for example, allows me to make the entire program darker not just track colors.
I know that this will most likely be a non-issue for most & I did not see it requested anywhere else so I think most are happy with it as is, its just me I guess.

Sorry for the stupid answer, but, for the moment, can't you just use the controls of contrast and brightness of your monitor display? Anyway I would like to change the background me too...maybe a just an additional "blacky" option would be sufficient... 🙂

Yes, that is sort tempory fix. I don't really like that idea since I would constantly have to readjust my monitor just to use SM. It would be much more effective if I could just make areas dark blues & grays and save this color scheme to sm and then have it each time I open it. Even if I could just make the schematic area a dark gray and perhaps do away with the grid (and activate it when I need it). I guess such customization is extra work, when that could be spent on others things, but it is feature about other program that I alway use!

Well.
I have to agree with Hlis93. Great name btw...
If I have the option to alter the colors in a prgram. i always do it.
I like darker apps. Makes the important stuff pop out a bit.
If it needs to much work it shouldnt be on the top list of things to do.
But it would still be nice to have it.
