CudaText: Most dark themes very hard to use (bad contrast of menu bar in Qt5 version)
As such I copied white.cuda-theme-ui
to black.cuda-theme-ui
with the following changes:

I’ve been using the black UI theme
with the cobalt Syntax theme
and that has been working out well for me.

renamed to ‘theme.White-Qt5-fix.zip’ so uninstaller can remove it ok. publishing.
I wrote the question to Laz forums, https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/topic,60453.0.html
@eltonfabricio10 both of those themes still have the menu and tool bar light/dark contrast issue. Apart from that, like every other dark ui-theme, they are fine.
