Select Theme to choose the look. It holds two choices, each previewed live: the whole app changes as you scroll, and each choice is saved as you make it.

The Theme menu: Style and Palette

How the app is drawn:

  • Bold (the default): the palette as it is, with a solid highlight behind the selected row and dots for your place in a list.
  • Minimal: a black background with white text, the palette’s signature colour for everything else, a short underline for the selected row and an arc for your place in a list.

Bold, the default style Minimal, white on black with a cyan accent

The colours: fifteen palettes, each shown here on its own entry in the picker. Default, the Unterberg Systems cyan and navy, is what CourtKeeper starts with.
