Ventana software support forum

Hi,

In addition to issues with the readability of icons in the toolbar when Windows Dark Mode is activated (viewtopic.php?p=33724#p33724), I noticed another unwanted side effect of the Windows Dark Mode in Vensim.

It's not easy to see in the screenshots below, but when Dark Mode is activated, ‘Line 5/Series: 4’ is missing from the legend of the graph on the right.
Strangely enough, ‘Line 5/Series: 4’ is also missing from the chart itself (there is a gap between ‘Line 4/Series: 3’ and ‘Line 6/Series: 5’. You can vaguely see from the gridlines that there is a line between the two series, but it is not visible).

This is what the chart look like with dark mode activated in Windows: And this is what chart look like with dark mode deactivated in Windows:
Since a lot of Windows users use the dark mode these days, it would be desirable if the charts were readable when both dark and light modes are disabled.

Best regards

Markus

P.S. I use the following version of Vensim:

Forgot to mention: One workaround is to select a different colour preset (e.g. any of the ColorBlindSafe presets).
However, it would be desirable to be able to use the Vensim default preset and to have it display the same colours in both light and dark mode.
I don't understand why the left side shows the same colours in light and dark mode, but the colours in the charts on the right side are different.

Dark mode still needs work on Windows as I mentioned in the other thread.
