Recensioni per Midnight Lizard
Midnight Lizard di Pavel Agarkov
Recensione di The Pfaffinator
Valutata 4 su 5
di The Pfaffinator, 6 anni faI am so happy to have a universal "dark mode" for browsing that is customizable like this! I have tried dozens of dark mode Firefox extensions, and none of them give the granular control and theme customization that Midnight Lizard does.
The only reasons I didn't give 5 stars are:
1) Saving changes to an existing theme is a bit cumbersome. Any change made sets the theme to "custom" instead of the theme I was currently using. Then I have to click Color Schemes, then choose the one you are editing from the dropdown, then enter the name again in the box before clicking "save". I'd like to be able to update the current theme by clicking "Apply" on the main screen.
2) The toolbar icon for this extension is very brightly colored, and rather too small to see the detail in certain browser themes. It would be nice to have a monochrome, simple geometric icon that blends with the rest of the native themes, or the ability for the user to customize the icon.
Other than that, great work, and thank you very much for helping me use my browser without burning out my retinas (the web is normally way too bright).
Also, thanks for the Solarized-like scheme on the forums. Please make it a built in theme, since I know I'm not the only person wanting it.

Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 6 anni faHi! Thank you for the review.
1) It works this way historically since originally there were no predefined color schemes at all. And this is true only when you are editing Default or Custom color schemes which also were introduced much later. But for Default color scheme to save your changes you can use Set as default. Just one click will do both save and apply the changes.
So meaning of Apply button was defined when it was absolutely logical and I couldn't later change it and break existing users' expectations. But probably I can duplicate Save button near to Apply (and make it even more confusing :)
2) That's a good point. Will try to implement it in the future.
*) There will be a website with more color schemes to choose from soon.
