Accessibility and Customization Issues in MMEX Desktop

[pakigamba]

Hi everyone,

I discovered MMEX a few years ago and I mainly use it on PC. I'm trying to use MMEX on my mobile phone as well, but I'm having synchronization issues, probably due to my own inexperience.

Let me make some (hopefully constructive) criticisms. I have vision problems, so I can't spend too much time in front of the monitor due to the strong light... I have vision problems and a serious issue with photophobia. I have almost all my programs set to dark mode.

Of course, I activated dark mode here as well, but I find it very uncomfortable. It does not highlight the selected row properly... and for me, the light is still too strong (especially where the menu and icons are positioned... basically the entire gray section).

I find the customization of the program extremely limited. Is there no other way to choose different colors for various sections? Do you necessarily have to be a programmer to change the app's layout?

Additionally, I would find it very useful to customize the icons of individual accounts with the corresponding bank logo. However, even here, customization is really difficult for those who have no knowledge or experience with SVG files (and I practically have no idea how to download an SVG file). Would it be possible to make this feature more accessible even for non-technical users?

I wasn't sure whether to post this message here in the Desktop section or in Feature Requests. If you think it's more appropriate there, I can move it or feel free to let me know.

Thanks, everyone!

Hi @pakigamba

I am also trying to customize a theme in MMEX and I have encountered some difficulties in modifying certain sections of the interface. However, regarding adding custom icons for accounts, I can help!
Here is the procedure to modify account icons in MMEX:

1. Find the theme folder:
   Account icons are usually located in:

   Code: Select all

   MMEX\res\themes<theme_name>\accounticons

   If this folder does not exist, you can create it manually.
2. Modify existing icons:
   MMEX supports only SVG icons.To replace an icon, simply create an SVG file with the same name as the original icon and save it in the accounticons folder.
   Examples of predefined icons:

   Code: Select all

   ACC_ABOUT.svg     
   ACC_CAT.svg  
   ACC_CLOCK.svg       
   ACC_COINS.svg  
   etc.
   

3. Add new icons:
   MMEX recognizes only icons with predefined names, so at the moment it is not possible to add new icons without modifying the program's source code.I have never tried adding completely new icon files, but I believe MMEX only recognizes the default ones and does not load additional icons if they are not predefined.
4. Restart MMEX:
   After replacing the icons, close and reopen MMEX to see the applied changes.

I hope this information is helpful!If you have any questions or need further details, I am happy to help.
