Rhino 8.6 bug - white text on white background

I wish I could read white text on white background. You can see good example of this text in the slider settings window.

Not seeing that here. Have you changed any settings? You can revert to defaults with the Reset command.

Windows 10 made clear distinction between low contrast themes and high contrast themes. It tells the user whether the current theme is low contrast or high contrast. Furthermore, it allows the user to make several custom themes and to give them different names. Windows 11 is much more messy. It is difficult to figure out whether current theme is low contrast or high contrast. Apparently all background picture themes are low contrast and all solid background themes are high contrast. I purchased Rhino 8 to get dark user interface, so I must have dark, solid background. If Rhino 8 is incompatible with the high contrast themes, it probably means that I have wasted money. According to Windows 11 high contrast themes are called “contrast themes” and low contrast themes are just called “themes.” When I set the theme to “theme” and “turn on dark mode systemwide” on, Windows 11 still displays plenty of white color - it is called “accent color.” As far as I can tell, the only way to eliminate white color from the user interface is using “contrast theme.”

thanks @andrew.nowicki for reporting
