Demonstration video

Both icons, and some particular widgets (like the round drag handle in the zoom slider) do not update in realtime when you switch between light and dark mode. They only update when you restart the application.

This is particularly noticeable and problematic (for accessibility) when you are switching from dark mode to light mode, because then the icons become invisible, as the Sifr dark icons are almost-white light-gray on a white background.

See the attached demonstration video showing the issue.
