Light theme is used before setting the dark theme #4895

Open nvllsvm opened 7 years ago

nvllsvm commented 7 years ago

Upon starting the desktop app, a white loading screen is displayed even when a dark theme is set. Regardless of which theme is set - this is the screen that is shown. 2017-08-26 10 33 29 664

After this screen, the light theme is used regardless of which theme is set. If the dark theme is set, the light theme is visible only for a fraction of a second before loading the dark theme.

As someone who uses dark themes in all apps, the loading of the of the white theme even when the dark screen is selected is really distracting.

Similar problem on OSX?

It happens for me the other way. Dark on loading and after it the light theme

tleydxdy commented 5 years ago

if you set dark theme in config.json, it will use dark theme on loading, so I suspect the local setting isn't loaded fast enough

Is this issue still relevant? I have the right color on my side (Element Desktop 1.7.14).

It's still actual in 1.11.22. OS: Windows 7.
