Hello,

I think that a "reverse video" mode (white background) would be interesting to increase contrast if the luminosity is high.

Your opinion?

I come back from the Maldives and I agree. Not a bad idea :)

Does this really help? The contrast stays the same when inverting the screen...

I was diving in high brightness conditions recently and with the screen brightness set to medium or high it was no problem to read the screen. Eco was, indeed, a bit dark here.

Matthias

It would probably eat batteries like mad.

Matthias, we are in agreement. If the screen is set to medium or high it is much more visible on the dive boat. For the rest I think the idea could be good but needs to be tested. I am by no means an expert :). Best regards for your great job. :)

No, with the TFT screen it does not matter.

And is it possible to do a test with high brightness to see the difference?

On the contrary I am convinced that it would be better.
