Dark Skins for QBittorrent
Dark Skins for QBittorrent
legibledark and dracula2
Some dark qBittorrent skins available on the net are hard to read because they have dark text on a dark background and not enough contrast. In some, the progress percentage number doesn't fully display with most resolution settings.
So, I made these two dark skins with more contrast. legibledark is mostly white on a very dark blue background and dracula2 is mostly white on a very dark gray background. They're both very easy to read and their progress percentage number fully displays perfectly with any resolution setting.
To install a skin, go to Tools > Options > Behavior. Under Interface put a checkmark on "Use custom UI Theme." Underneath that, go to the right of "UI Theme file:" and click on the little yellow folder. Browse to the theme file and then click on "Apply" and "OK". Completely restart qBittorrent (exit out of the tray notification icon) and the theme will display. (see image below)

@S.H.Bouwhuis
The themes should work on all versions. You're welcome.

Re: Dark Skins for QBittorrent
There is a bug in the LegibleDark theme. You can't see whether checkboxes are ticked or not. For instance, in the window which opens when you load a torrent or magnet where you can choose which files to download you cannot see what the state is of the checkboxes.
Re: Dark Skins for QBittorrent
Sounds as if something corrupted. Please delete the old file, download it again and then install it again. That will fix it.

Re: Dark Skins for QBittorrent
Yes, now it does work. Thanks for the fix.
Re: Dark Skins for QBittorrent
All those dark skins are awful. The devs should consider adding an official dark mode to QBitTorrrent.
Re: Dark Skins for QBittorrent
BIG THANK YOU
These skins are great!
The devs should make one of them the official dark skin mode!
