Yeah I'm having a real hard time figuring out what is actually taken from Windows and what is U++ convention when it comes to Chameleon, especially for dark mode.

And probably things are different on Gtk and Mac...


Exactly.

Well I'm having a hard time figuring it out but you know the system. Smile

Speaking off, I implemented live skin switching. Pretty hard to do because a lot of controls cache several values


That is exactly the reason why we support setting skin on startup.

See, I guess there is a certain mismatch of expectations. For me and for U++ users I care about, skinning is not that important. I just want the app look as much integrated into host as possible, do not care much above that. And most users do not switch themes 3 times per hour.

And I'm also having this problem: I'm in dark mode, I switch to light mode once, icons are still dark. I switch a second time to (the same) light mode, icons are light. Is this the dark mode icon cacher? If yes can we force an invalidate in it with some API?


Fixable, just forgot to fix it.
