Can I change the text in the Lightroom interface?

New Here ,
Aug 10, 2025 Aug 10, 2025

I am having difficulty reading the panels. My screen is as bright as it goes, and font size is already at 150. However the grey on grey and black, is becoming difficult to read. Can I make the letter white? Can I change the 'skin' of lightroom classic to be brighter?

 

Thank you for your help.

If you are on a Windows PC, can you try to change the Windows display settings?   Right click in the desktop, pick display settings and try changing to 1920x1080.

Thank you Bill, but it did not achieve the results I had hoped for. But thank you for your suggestion.

You can't change the LR color scheme, unfortunately.

It is a 2 year old Dell laptop, with a 15 inch screen. I am sure that is part of the problem,  but I can't do anything about that.

@Smitten1981  Do you have tried to change the Background (and still the Lights Out) settings on the Interface tab in the Preferences dialog?  Here you can change the color from white to black in 6 steps.

Hello @Smitten1981! Unfortunately, Lightroom Classic doesn’t offer a bright or white UI theme—it's limited to dark grey tones. You can adjust panel font size under Preferences > Interface, but text color can't be changed. For improved visibility, consider adjusting your system’s contrast settings or utilizing macOS/Windows accessibility features.  Bible Chat Ai
