Hello,

on this subject I know very little, maybe nothing, and I was not able to find what I need.

I have a set of icons in the Iml file. The troubbles appeared when some users switched to dark mode and the icons looked weird or barely visible. Moreover they seems non to adapt to the screen resolution.
I think the fix should be a set of SVG icons for both light and dark theme (maybe a unique neutral set that adapt to both theme?).

How can the program knows it is in light/dark mode in order to chooce the right icons?
Should I set, instead, the light/dark mode inside the program and save the setting?

Thanks and best regards,
Luigi
