      2020 Design has application looks in the preferences to change the colors of the user interface. “Dark Grey” was an option in version 13. In version 14, it’s not an option in preferences any more, but you can use Registry Editor to bring back different dark modes and save your eyeballs!

      There seem to be a total of about 15 modes you can choose from there. There are three middle-grey modes, three dark modes, six light modes, and three stark-white modes.

      I’ve included a ZIP file that shows screenshots of each mode and registry files to activate each mode. You can either use my registry files or you can manually change these yourself in the Registry Editor program. It’s easy either way!

      **Instructions for registry files are included in the ZIP download**. Just download the zip file, extract it, and browse the contents.

      Manual Instructions

      If you want to manually change the application look without a registry file, here’s the instructions:
      1. Open the Start Menu
      2. Start typing “Registry Editor”
      3. Open the Registry Editor program
      4. Navigate to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Cyncly\Design\14\Settings\VisualManager]
      5. Double click “ApplicationLook”
      6. Type in the value for the Application Look you want (See below for list)
      Click OK.
      Restart Design v14 if you had it open.
      Done!

      The file didn’t upload because it was too big. Here it is with a few downsized images.
