Since JabRef 5.2
it is possible to use custom themes. In Preferences > Appearance > Visual theme
the themes in general can be changed. Themes are just CSS files defining the look of the UI.
Light Theme: The default theme is the light theme (Base.css
).
Dark Theme: There is an alternative dark theme (Dark.css
) which is based on Base.css
and just overwrites the colors.
Custom Theme: In Preferences > Appearance > Visual theme > Custom theme
there can be set a custom theme by simply selecting a custom CSS (based on Base.css
or Dark.css
), for instance:
UI element | CSS selector |
preview box |
|
|
|
text in |
|
Light Theme ​
Dark Theme ​
Custom Theme (based on the Dark Theme)
