This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

I would like to be given a dark mode or the ability to control colors for Run SQL Scripts.
Between the dark screen of the emulator and dark mode of RDI, it would be awesome to also have a dark theme for Run SQL Scripts.
RDI gives the option to apply different colors to specific SQL items based on the parser style that is set. This can be found in the preferences under LPEX Editor -> Parsers -> Parser Styles. Within that screen, if you choose to look at the ILErpgSql parser, we have the ability to change certain style properties of SQL code. Having similar options for a Run SQL Scripts dark mode would be preferable.
I would use this all the time!

It's much easier on the eyes in the dark mode, especially after over 30years in coding, white glares starts to be more problematic.
Thank you for submitting your Request For Enhancement. After evaluating and prioritizing this request, we cannot deliver your requested enhancement in the near future, so it is being declined. However, we understand the value of this request, so it will be added to an internal list for future consideration.
How many times can we vote for a single RFE? I would vote for this one 100 times.
IBM understands this request and will consider it for a future code update, though no commitment is made or implied.
The COMMON Europe Advisory Council (CEAC) has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a “nice to have” LOW priority feature.
Background: The CEAC members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CEAC has a crucial role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your RFE.
To find out how CEAC help to shape the future of IBM i, see CEAC @ ibm.biz/BdYSYj and the article "The Five Hottest IBM i RFEs Of The Quarter" at ibm.biz/BdYSZT

IBM has received this requirement and is evaluating it. A response will be provided when evaluation is complete.
