Hey vampires,

 

I've recently updated my canvas settings to combat the brightness and I'm very pleased with the results so far.  I've always used a battleship grey canvas because any darker, the contrast is lost but that was until I realised you could change the colours of lines etc.

Here's an example workflow with my canvas settings:

If you want to copy, here are the settings:

In other news, PLEASE BRING US DARK MODE

Nice, thanks for pointing it out! Though i think that also adds some eye-straining contrast with the light coloured windows docked around it

You might be right, @Matthew, but I personally prefer it to the big white screen at the moment.  Play with the settings until you find something that works for you.

After the Alteryx Designer 2022 release, this became a must have feature!

Reminder that the Dark Mode idea moved to "accepted" in 2022 so keep your eye on the horizon: something dark this way comes...
