supports with dark theme?

[jhk0530]

Hi, thanks for your awesome work. I love it

I didn't use every features of pandasgui yet. but i'll try.
And maybe I expect myself to write very basic tutorial for my students.

but there's few suggestion for this project.

1. it's good to see this in colab.

2. when pandasgui didn't work in colab. i tried to use it on jupyter lab. (and it worked !)
   however as my local pc has dark theme. it didn't work properly.

---

Here are my environments

• macOS catalina
• python version 3.8.3
• pandasgui version 0.2.7
• pandas version 1.1.2

thanks again.

Unfortunately I'll never be able to support Colab since it runs on a remote server and cannot run any realtime graphical frameworks like PyQt.

I'm working on adding a dark theme and will probably publish it in the next 2 weeks.

Just pushed the dark theme (and a matching light theme). Gonna leave this issue open until I'm done working on it since there are still some tweaks needed

awesome!

I wanted to override the titlebar color but turns out that's hard. Putting the solutions I've found below for reference. I only found one PyQt package but it breaks OS features like aero shake and aero snap which isn't a good tradeoff, so keeping the white titlebar for now.

PyQt
https://github.com/gmarull/qtmodern (doesn't support aero snap)
Qt
https://github.com/melak47/BorderlessWindow
https://github.com/Moussa-Ball/BorderlessWindowQt-Modern-Gui
https://github.com/deimos1877/BorderlessWindow
https://github.com/Jorgen-VikingGod/Qt-Frameless-Window-DarkStyle (doesn't support aero snap)

Just tried the theme capability but am getting an issue with the preferences json file not existing.
I did a fresh install of the pandasgui develop branch from github this morning. My environment is Python 3.7 installed via Anaconda:
OS: Win10, Python 3.7.3, IPython 7.19.0, PyQt 5.9.2, PyQt5 5.15, pyqt5-sip 12.8.1, pyqtwebengine 5.15.1
When I from pandasgui import show I get:
~\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pandasgui\store.py in
22 preferences_path = os.path.join(LOCAL_DATA_DIR, 'preferences.json')
23 if not os.path.exists(preferences_path):
---> 24 with open(preferences_path, 'w') as f:
25 json.dump({'theme': "light"}, f)
26

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\pandasgui\preferences.json'

Just added a line to create that dir if it doesn't exist, can you check if it works now

[jonnojohnson]

That fixed it.

EDIT: sorry, I just had to restart after I installed pandasgui from git and saw the "Set theme" option on the bar. :-/ Apologies for spamming

Hi,

Thanks a lot for this tool, it's really of great help.

I have tried 0.2.7 (I tried both installing it by pip and installing via git) and I don't seen any option to set the theme. Am I missing something?
