Possibility to add Day/Night Theme or Theme Selection to settings

[Melancho7ee]

Dear @ebranlard ,
I am using the latest v0.5 both on Windows and macOS. The GUI on Windows is very nice. However, when on macOS, the night theme does not seem to be very satisfactory. I am wondering if there will be theme selection options in the future?

Best Regards,
Jiaqi

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback. I agree that it should preferably be adapted to the theme.
At the moment, I don't know how to do it, I'm enclosing a minimal example if you want to work with it and find a solution. If you find a solution for this example, I can include it in pyDatView. Let me know!

import wx
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg import FigureCanvasWxAgg as FigureCanvas
import numpy as np

class SimpleApp(wx.Frame):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

        # Main panel
        panel = wx.Panel(self)
        self.listbox = wx.ListBox(panel, choices=["A", "B", "C"], style=wx.LB_SINGLE)

        # Matplotlib figure and canvas
        figure, ax = plt.subplots()
        self.canvas = FigureCanvas(panel, -1, figure)

        # Layout
        sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.HORIZONTAL)
        listbox_sizer = wx.BoxSizer(wx.VERTICAL)
        listbox_sizer.Add(wx.StaticText(panel, label="Choice:"), 0, wx.BOTTOM, 5)
        listbox_sizer.Add(self.listbox, 1, wx.EXPAND)
        sizer.Add(listbox_sizer, 0, wx.ALL | wx.EXPAND, 5)
        sizer.Add(self.canvas, 1, wx.EXPAND)
        panel.SetSizer(sizer)

        # Window settings
        self.SetSize((800, 600))
        self.Centre()
        self.Show()

        # Plot a simple sine function
        x = np.linspace(0, 2 * np.pi, 500)
        ax.plot(x, np.sin(x))
        ax.set_title("Sine Function")
        ax.set_xlabel("x")
        ax.set_ylabel("sin(x)")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = wx.App(False)
    frame = SimpleApp(None)
    app.MainLoop()

Dear @ebranlard ,
Thanks for your reply! I will try to integrate such codes later. :-)
