Dear 3dconnexion developers, just fix this. Pleaaaase...

For all their customizablity, the 3dconnexion product range lacks one particular option that sticks out like a sore thumb every single day; the ability to change the background color!

The following applies to radial menus, on-screen ribbon, and the Enterprise LCD-screen:

Everything 3dconnexion is designed around the the same standard "Windows-gray" that we've all stared at for over 30 years now. However, Microsoft and other companies have finally realized that staring at bright colors for eight hour per day is straneous on the eyes, and hence they've come to develop "dark themes" that are more comfortable to look at for extended periods of time. As a consequence the various icons have been altered to be adequately visible on a DARK background, so when 3dxware imports the icons sets and just slap them on the the same light gray background that's been there forever, a whole lot of the icons are VIRUALLY INVISIBLE, defeating the point of displaying them in the first place!

So, please, please, with sugar on top; GIVE US A BUTTON IN THE 3DCONNEXION SETTINGS THAT ALLOWS US TO SET THE BACKGROUND COLOR TO WHATEVER WE WANT, and we'll just tend to it ourselves.

This has been pointed out by several other users than me over the past two years or so, so why this appears to have been ignored is a little hard to understand as this can't possibly be a very extensive implementation, nor should it have any adverse effects on the user experience, since it would be an option the user is free to decide whether to explore or not.

I promote this.
Please Add "Dark Mode" to 3D-Connexion to solve issues with certain programs that has white/grey icons while that program is in Dark Mode.

Can you tell specifically where Dark Mode is?
