check boxes disappear and I didn't have the patience to figure out what it was. It looks like the checkmarks still aren't visible on the model panel's controls for selecting and hiding models - not sure what that's about. There's probably other issues I haven't
noticed yet.</span><br>

<div>Hi Tony,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> That is cool! Seems like something that should be built into ChimeraX. If it is ok with you we could put it in the standard distribution and of course credit you for creating it. For the Log and other html ChimeraX panels (e.g. help viewer)
I guess the trouble is related to Qt's way of rendering html using a separate process for each html widget and rendered with Chromium. It is probably not using your style sheet, and could be tricky to make arbitrary html content (e.g. shown in help viewer)
have a dark theme. ChimeraX has an html widget class in chimerax.ui.widgets.htmlview, and maybe it is possible to set a style sheet. Of course web pages could override your style sheet by setting explicit background color.</div>

A while ago, I started making a bundle that would set ChimeraX's theme to solarized light. Solarized light should be easier on the eyes than the default light theme, but still make black icons or other UI elements stand out. Unfortunately, it didn't survive
a hard drive failure. I might spend some free time trying to redo that.<br class="">

In the meantime, I've grabbed a dark theme style sheet from another app, made a few changes and tossed it in a bundle:<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://github.com/ajs99778/ChimeraX_DarkTheme/tree/main/dist" id="LPlnk451907" class="">https://github.com/ajs99778/ChimeraX_DarkTheme/tree/main/dist</a>.
You can download the .whl file, then install it by running<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><code class="">toolshed install "path\to\ChimeraX_DarkTheme-0.1-py3-none-any.whl"</code> on the ChimeraX command line<code class=""></code>. You can check
ChimeraX's current folder with the<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><code class="">pwd</code> command or move to another folder with the<span class="x_Apple-converted-space"> </span><code class="">cd</code> command. I know this works on ChimeraX
1.1 and the 1.2 daily builds, but I haven't tested older versions.<br class="">

It should be easier on the eyes, but I'm not too happy with how this theme looks at the moment (see attached). The log's color isn't changed either. It'll need some more work before I submit it to the toolshed.</div>

<div class="">I tried setting my Mac system preferences (General section) to dark mode. After that, the ChimeraX toolbar and most of the ChimeraX tools have a dark background: Model Panel, Volume Viewer, etc. Exceptions are the Log and sequence windows. However,
this makes the Volume Viewer histogram impossible to see because it is black on black. Screenshot attached.</div>

Dear ChimeraX Developers Team,<br class="">
<br class="">
Do you have in your features list an dark or black GUI theme? <br class="">
I understand that stylistic features have lover priority than a really useful ones, but during many hours of work every day in ChimeraX white GUI eyes getting tired especially at late hours and especially when it contrasts with dark interface of the rest of
the system and other dark themed software. <br class="">
I really looking forward to see a dark theme feature in future updates.<br class="">

Respectfully yours,<br class="">
