My theme changes from dark to light randomly. Even when I’m logging on to the same machine at different times, sometimes it’s dark, and sometimes it’s light. I think I saw a notice about auto-switching theme (based on time of day?), but I’m not sure that’s what’s happening… if I log on in the morning at 8am, 9am, or even 11am today, my theme is dark, which I prefer. I left for a late lunch and come back, log in, and now it’s light. Where can I disable this (if it’s a feature)? ---

There is some detail on the auto-theme here: > [@Release Notes - Version 1.210402.0](https://community.tradovate.com/t/release-notes-version-1-210402-0/1964/2): > > To enable this feature: Under Application Settings\>Application. In the Theme dropdown an option has been added “Auto based on user Preference” When this option is selected, the Tradovate theme used will follow the theme that is setup in your OS. If you do not have this setting configured, it might be best to contact support and they might be able to investigate the reason for it ---

Thanks. I’m working with support on this.
