Dark mode in the editor

[cicciocb]

Hi all,
following the recent requests I received to implement a "Dark Mode" on the Annex32 editor, I played around a bit to find a simple way for any user to customize the colors according to their own taste.

This is a screen shot showing the level of customisation possible .... all is done inside a single .css file.

If you are interested, I've just uploaded another version for the ESP32, the 1.52.7.
By default the editor page works as before but now can be fully customised.
You just need to upload a single annex32.css file into the root of the disk.
You can freely modify the content of this file and experiment directly on the module.

I've just prepared a default "DARK mode" annex32.css file that you can find below

annex32.css

All the settings are commented so it should not be hard to modify as per your taste.

Please try it and let me know.

p.s.
This is the content of the .css file

A great addition. Especially for the visually challenged like myself.

I fixed the "normal" working without the file annex32.css (download again the version 1.52.7).

I remember the following :

Without any annex32.css file present in the module, the editor work as before.
With a file annex32.css present in the module (see the file manager image below), the editor follows the settings defined inside this file.

The files attached in the previous post is configured for dark mode but you can change any color as per your own tastes.

Hello. Is dark mode possible either for Annex WiFi RDS (ESP8266)? Can be the mentioned css file with possible modification, added in root (file manager), enough for changing to dark mode ? Thanks, regards, Sebastijan.
