Styling Of Only Specific Website Elements Possible? #14572

As you are not a gmail developer I would say it's not possible. Dark Reader always applies it's changes to whole page. P.S. If you know how to prepare some CSS with styling the bright parts then you could search for some extension which can inject your CSS onto page. However I won't give you any examples as I do not use any. (*) There was some known "issue" that Proton Mail was using that to keep Dark Reader off the composing email dialog which was always with white background. |

@Myshor : Thanks for the answer and the details. I know enough to be aware there are others ways to try and while I haven't found one, I wanted to at least ask if I am missing some of the options of Dark Reader itself before try something else. I still find the idea of the element picker of uBlock Origin very good, if it is usable for selecting elements to style also (which I am pretty sure of) but I do not know how much effort this would be. Anyway, it always is a good thing to check all options before making a decision and maybe someone brings in the missing part or an interesting solution; fiddling around with styling, especially manually and for such selective cases, seems to be not the best one on first sight. |

Hello,
generally, you can enable or disable Dark Reader for a whole website, which is fine. But Dark Reader always comes with a performance loss, more or less (depending on the specific website), may cause issues and often, the native dark themes of websites simply look much better since individually designed.
That said, I'm using GMail, for example. Even when using its own theming and chosing a dark theme, the content area of messages and the side panel at the right side of the screen stay bright white. While I can enable Dark Reader still to get the whole website dark and it has not much performance impact and looks okay, the native style is better and I would like to ONLY use Dark Reader for those two bright white elements as the best solution.
Is that possible? If yes, how?
uBlock Origin has a featured element picker to block only specific elements of a website; that's the thing I'm asking for even though it must be done manually in this case ...
Best regards,
Tim
