In dark theme, the contrast between the chart background and the tab background should be reduced (same for the filter background). This makes the data stand out more and draw the user's eye towards the data.

  • New dark theme filter and background colours should have a similar difference in brightness to the existing light theme background colours.
  • Tip: Colorizer.org is useful for easily adjusting colours along different scales
Current Light Theme Proposed Dark Theme
Difference in brightness (HSB): ~2 image Difference in brightness (HSB): ~2 image
Background: #ffffff image Chart background: #f4f7fb image Chart background: #232323 image Tab background: #1e1e1e image

Comparison of darker and lighter backgrounds:

Current backgrounds (lighter) Proposed backgrounds (darker)
Difference in brightness (HSB): ~13 image Difference in brightness (HSB): ~2 image
Chart background: #3f3f3f image Tab background: #1e1e1e image Chart background: #232323 image Tab background: #1e1e1e image
