If you would like to see either of those options brought to life in Alteryx, please make sure to like these posts!
A community dark mode would also be excellent
Thanks for all the support, guys. I am pleased to share that DARK MODE is coming! @NicoleJ - amazing news.

Make it happen ✊
Agreed!
I know, right!
Agreed. I have MS Windows set to dark mode.. So its pretty blinding to have a bright white Alteryx window floating among all the black.
Exactly the same for me!
Yes. Would love to see a dark mode
Good news-- @IraWatt developed a Chrome extension for dark mode for the community and gallery pages! 😎

Thanks for the shout out @MeganBowers ! 😄
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
Any updates on this? We need dark mode...
After the Alteryx Designer 2022 release, this became a must have feature!
How is this not an option yet?
It's coming, @Eli_B.
Yes I would love to see this!
Reminder that the Dark Mode idea moved to "accepted" in 2022 so keep your eye on the horizon: something dark this way comes...
Need this feature ASAP.
Like, yesterday.
It's here!
Designer 2023.1
IMHO, these are the optimal canvas options for dark mode:
I'd love to know what settings everyone goes for.
Nice to see it in Beta. A dark mode scheme closer to Discords dark mode would be ideal. This is very dark!
They don't do anything by half, @cjaneczko - the light mode is very white! I know what you mean about the darkness but I think the main thing is actually converting all the elements that are still light mode (tool settings etc.) because it's the contrast between the two that makes the dark elements look even darker.I've had a couple of DMs about how to enable dark mode, go to User Settings > Customisation:
Please make it happen staring at a white page makes me icky at 5am!
Your settings for the canvas work well. I did convert all the other elements over. It blends in pretty good. They should consider toning it down a bit with the black lol. A darker grey would be more appealing, similar to the lower screenshot.
@atwark - it has happened (in Beta). You need to download Designer 2023.1 and go to User Settings > Customisation.
Hi All - I posted on this, you might find the canvas config helpful
