Description of the Issue
In Preferences > Dark Mode, when defining the Customized Tones instead of using one of the predefined Dark Mode color sets, the Reset will take it back to the default Dark Mode tones. It would be really helpful if you could start from one of the predefined color sets, instead of just starting from the default.
For example, if I mostly like "Olive", but want to change the "Error" color, right now I would have to Customize, trying to figure out what the "Olive" colors are first (or dig into source code) and set those to match what "Olive" uses, and then customize the one color I actually wanted to change from "Olive"'s color scheme. Being able to populate from "olive" to "custom" would allow easier tweaking of the Tones.
Describe the solution you'd like.
I can think of two ways to implement it:
- If you start from (for example) "Olive", when you enable "Customized", it could pre-populate the tones from the "Olive", instead of starting from the tones that match "Black"
- Normal-Click Reset would reset to "Black"-based tones; Right-Click Reset would allow picking which of the preset color-sets to start from (so Right-Click Reset then "Olive" would show all the Tones that match the "Olive" choice"
the second is probably better, because that will avoid losing your previous customized set every time you pick one of the predefined colors (so it would allow easily switching back and forth between Named and Custom without resetting the Custom colors)
(If #13255 is implemented -- which it should be -- then the Right-Click-Reset list should include Light as one of the drop-down color sets to choose from)
