Bitmap light mode for printing

While I prefer to use dark mode when working with my 403(easier on my eyes), would it be possible to export the bitmap in light mode to save printer ink?

In release 1.142, you can go to the Edit->Settings menu and select Dark on Light and do just that.

Would it be possible to add an option to have the bitmap always Dark on Light, so you don’t have to change that display option for every save? That would be awesome.

Well, the always “Dark on Light” might not be fair for the “Light on Dark” guys :slight_smile:

Perhaps a solution would be to stay on the chosen option until the user manually change it back to the previous option.

I was thinking a tick box option, so if you like it the way it is now there’s no change.

Hi @peppermint, yes, this is a good idea. If you are Dark on Light and you pick File->New then it will keep the Dark on Light settings. This will go into 1.210

Release 1.210 was posted yesterday and should have your light on dark or dark on light preference remembered across File->New sessions.

Thanks Matt,

A bit off-topic, but how are pre-releases different from releases? I still use 1.202. It it safe to upgrade to 1.210 or some things might break?

Hi @peppermint, the pre-releases don’t generally have as much testing. They are for folks that would like to try new features sooner.
