Dark theme broken in latest update

[cbordeman]

In the latest update a few days ago that TT seemed to apply automatically, the Windows 10 (selected in TT settings) dark theme (set manually in TT Settings), acts super weird. When you click the tray icon, the UI pops up in LIGHT mode, then transitions to DARK mode over a few seconds. The transition time frame should be 0 or not exist!

Also, the TT Settings window, it just stays white, despite DARK mode being selection manually.

In Windows 11 mode (the TT option), on both the tray popup and the TT Settings windows stay at LIGHT mode, despite being hard coded to dark.

I've reinstalled Windows, but the bug is still there, and makes it extremely painful to use TT, since I am diabetic and have incredibly severe light sensitivity.

NOTE: My OS itself is Windows 10.

I'm not able to replicate this, but I'm on Windows 11. Do you have any software that changes your theme or light/dark mode (like Auto Dark Mode)?

Sorry, I should have mentioned I'm using both Dark Mode and High Contrast (the latter overrides the former though).

The issue is specific to high contrast themes. It should be resolved in the next update. If you're not using the Microsoft Store version of Twinkle Tray, you can install this version with the fix.

That version fixes the Settings page, but the popup from the tray is even worse. It is white instead of black (I use a dark High Contrast theme, not a light one) and the text is also white, making it impossible to read the text. EDIT: Selecting the Windows 11 "mode" from the TW settings fixes the tray popup, too. Windows 10 mode has the incorrect white background.

This build should fix the background being white: https://github.com/xanderfrangos/twinkle-tray/actions/runs/12399157168/artifacts/2339356710

Yep, thanks, works in 10 and 11 mode.
