Forums - Use system preference for dark/light mode

I’ve been using this for a couple of days now and it works great. The only issue I see is with drawn kanji in mnemonics and stroke order diagrams. These are old issues, but with the display flipping back and forth twice a day they become more noticeable.

What exactly is the issue with the drawn kanji? Is it that they ignore the new setting? Are they fixed on light or dark regardless?

They never seem to catch up with the latest setting. So we get black lines on a black background or white lines on a white background in mnemonics. Plus, the stroke diagram is white when it should be black and vice versa.

I need to correct that slightly. What actually happened to the leg radical page is that it stayed white.

It is now back to how it looked in the previous image.

Ah, I see the issue. Let me think on it.

The system preference lives just inside of the webpage, but doesn't report to the server. However, those images are generated server-side, so the preference it not reaching back there. I'm sure there is a way to fix it, but need to think on the best way to do it without excess calls to the backend.

That was easier than I thought. Fixed maybe?

Not really. I still see dark lines on a dark background.

The dark mode looks good. Unfortunately, when it switches to light mode it looks like this:

And now it’s back to dark mode, but it no longer looks good.

When you say "switch to light/dark", what exactly is happening on your end? For example, are you

1. Changing the light/dark settings in renshuu, while leaving the "system preference" on?
2. Manually changing light/dark in your OS?

3. Leaving it to automatic in iOS, and waiting for it to switch over at a specific time of day?

Also, when this happens, if you go to menu > settings > save (without changing anything), does it fix some/all of it?

I’ve left the settings unchanged since I enabled the experimental feature. Switches between light and dark are automatic (that’s why there’s at least half a day between reports).

I’ll experiment with refreshing the options and see what happens.

EDIT: I’ll have to do that experiment later. It’s already fixed itself.

Okay, that works. Before:

Sorry for the delay! So...everything working at the moment?

Pretty much. There’s still a slight delay after switching, but chances are no one who isn’t focused on the issue will even notice.

One minor thing I’ve noticed. If a mnemonic is created (or edited, I think) when the device is in dark mode, any drawn characters are initially black lines on a black background. I think it’s using the account setting (currently not dark for me) instead of the device setting, but I haven’t tested all the possible combinations.
