# Theme inspirations

Added 2026-09-10 for Untrace Desktop 1.5.0.

These are independent palette adaptations for an image-cleaning application, not official ports or endorsed releases. No extension code or artwork is bundled. Backgrounds and familiar accent colours take inspiration from the projects below; semantic roles, surface hierarchy and text contrast are adapted for Untrace. In particular, editor comment colours are often too faint for small interface labels, so secondary text is brighter here.

The selection draws on established VS Code themes; it is not a measured installation ranking. All themes work offline and use the same native radio controls and shared component styles. Light, Dark, Graphite, Paper, Cobalt and Ember remain available as Untrace originals.
