TL;DR
An enhanced file viewer for Microsoft 365 offers viewing improvements in OneDrive online and SharePoint.  Available now.

Details
Old: “The file viewer had a white background that made it challenging to focus on the content that blended into the background. The command bar was crowded with features with no room to add new features. The file navigation arrows to move from file to file were in the top right corner, and their purpose was not intuitive”.

New: “The new file viewer has a dark mode background, an updated command bar, and file navigation arrows positioned in the middle of the page”. Read more: Introducing New Capabilities for File Viewer in Microsoft 365 – Microsoft Community Hub.
