AO: Dark theme flashes while refreshing
Posted: Sat May 23, 2026 5:07 pm
Hello,
There seems to be a small problem with the Dark theme. When AO is first opened and "reading" the system's current status (or if you just hit F5 to refresh), everything inside the main window keeps "flashing" i.e. appearing/disappearing.
This is a bit annoying to the eyes and does not affect the Light theme as much. A still capture of the "disappeared" status is attached.
An alternative could be to freeze the entire screen and show a small, unobtrusive "Please wait/Working..." or similar, although the process is quick enough to not really require it.
