Appearance menu options.

Theme Options

The options in this section of the Appearance menu let you choose which color scheme is applied to the user interface. The following options are available:

Option

Description

Light

The Light theme uses dark-font text on white or light gray backgrounds. This color scheme is optimized for maximum readability.

Dark

The Dark theme uses a combination of light text on a dark background. This color scheme emits less light and can reduce eyestrain, especially when used in low-light conditions.

Sync with OS

This option synchronizes your theme with the current preference for your operating system. Whenever your operating system switches from light mode to dark mode, this preference is automatically applied in YouTrack as well.

More Settings

This link takes you to the Workspace settings in your YouTrack profile. For a description of these settings, see Workspace Settings.
