Code:# uname -a
Linux myserver 4.9.0-13-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.228-1 (2020-07-05) x86_64 GNU/LinuxMATE 1.16.2 BlackMATE theme with Dopple Window Border.

I prefer a dark theme. It's easier on my eyes.

Everything else in Bluefish will change, but not the background.

Edit > Preferences > Fonts & Colors > Background color

I change this to a dark color, and nothing happens. Again, I can change the font color, or cursor color, or font size, or anything else, but not the background color.

I have also gone into "Text styles" it also does nothing.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=v-DCxue7guw:aBM1B8nO74A:F7zBnMy latest?i=v-DCxue7guw:aBM1B8nO74A:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=v-DCxue7guw:aBM1B8nO74A:gIN9vFwv-DCxue7guw
