Affinity Designer: "Appearance" panel's Add Stroke/Add Fill icons don't adapt to light mode

[Christian Tietze]

- Affinity Designer 2.1.0

- macOS 13.3.1

The "Appearance" panel's icons for Add Stroke and Add Fill should change to dark gray/black like the others, but actually stay light gray/white-ish. See screenshot.

I restarted the app already after switching to light mode.

Welcome to the forums @Christian Tietze,

Nice catch. I don't understand the use of low contrast icons and or text in the current designs of User Interfaces. Well it isn't that I don't understand it, more just that I hate it. We wind up missing out on using tools' options because we cannot see that they actually exist.

Hi @Christian Tietze,

Welcome to the Affinity Forums & thanks for your report 

I can confirm this appears to be the same on both Windows and MacOS and therefore I have logged this with our devs to be resolved ASAP.

I hope this helps!
