## Community: Dark mode

- AI: Pedro needs to rebase dark mode branch (and solve any conflicts coming from new sidebar work) , then ping Andreas K.
- Branch was very old and with multiple conficts. Branch rebased and now ready to receive Prs. **AI → rebase branch and force push**
- There is an issue:[Add a dark mode · Issue #4382 · CollaboraOnline/online · GitHub](https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/issues/4382)
- Why in a branch not master ?
  - We got regressions left & right here.
    - Affecting the non-dark-mode.
    - Plan to add a switcher so it doesn’t do it automatically.

  - Can just merge it – and hide the switcher.
    - Make it visible in CODE.
    - Also trigger info jsdialogs.

- Michael poking in his spare time at this.

# GitHub activity (Pedro)

- Gulsah
  - Now onto the uno button problem / Feature lock double dialog → fixed and merged
  - Working on formula are not being update [sum cells in frozen rows and columns are not always updated · Issue #5818 · CollaboraOnline/online · GitHub](https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/issues/5818)
    - It looked like Core problem but after a closer look it’s actually on Online side

- [**Context TopToolbar for all apps #3869**](https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/pull/3869) ← ressurect this PR would be good but without animation. → Ping Andreas K.

# Design bits (Pedro and others)

- Hannah → list of dialogs / jsdialogs etc.
  - Looking at the core side dialogs so we can see which ones are missing tp convert to JSDialogs in the Online
  - Finding instructions of how to launch each dialog
  - Which do we have in online & which do we not have.
  - Probably **good to add comment/list** into: [How to help with JSDialogs development (porting dialogs to native HTML)](https://forum.collaboraonline.com/t/how-to-help-with-jsdialogs-development-porting-dialogs-to-native-html/964)

- Hyperlink popup, text input field (misaligned ) is actually a textarea
  - Pedro: tried to fix it by replacing the html element (not possible it would break for some cases). Instead fix the height and the misalignment via CSS.
