AO: Dark theme flashes while refreshing

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.

Hello,

Thank you for the detailed report and for the screenshot — we appreciate it.

We’ve already started looking into this issue. In fact, we plan to release an update within the next month or two with a completely reworked list component, where this flickering should no longer occur.

Thank you for your patience and for helping us improve the interface.
