With the release of update 1.8.3 on January 30th (1.8 Desktop), Night Mode for PDF Viewer has been broken. At the moment, i have css snippet that reads as follows:
.theme-dark .pdf-viewer {
filter: invert(0.85);
}
But, right now, it’s not working
I know about the “adapt to theme” feature, but it makes the characters in the text too bright for me because I much prefer the “old dark mode” from my CSS snippet.
I had a similar issue. I used to have my pdf perfectly adapted to my theme. Now the colors are just inverted. I’m sure this is an update problem as since yesterday everything worked fine
I agree, Its 100% problem of new update
What’s interesting, I’ve tried different ways to convert the pdf to dark mode, but a few other ways, still didn’t work
hi, i ran into the same issue as you. To fix it you need to change your css-snippet to
.theme-dark .pdfViewer {
filter: invert(0.85);
}
Do you know how to fix the issues in the themes? Because I think it’s because they changed the name from pdf-viewer to pdfViewer. Probably the themes try to access the old name.
I don’t use a theme that changes the pdfViewer so i dont know for sure, but you could try to just replace pdf-viewer to pdfViewer in the theme.css file. It should be located at Obsidian Vault/.obsidian/themes.
Maybe they also changed more variables that breaks other stuff in your theme, so if that fails, I would advise you to contact the developer of your theme and ask them to update it.
It worked! So the problem was the css class! Thanks for the hint!
Can you give me your css snippet pls, because my css snippet doesnt work?
