SUMMARY
When trying to use Dolphin for Windows (10 Pro, 64-bit) when Windows dark theme
is applied, the Dolphin interface doesn't properly adapt to the dark theme.
Most of the interface font is not shown in a visible color. This is true for
the menu bar, the content windows and the context menus. This has been the case
in multiple versions of Dolphin for Windows that I have installed/updated to. I
did not see any place in the Dolphin configuration settings to natively adjust
the interface theme or colors. The reason I labeled the "Severity" of this bug
as "major" is because this font invisibility problem makes Dolphin practically
unusable unless I change the entire Windows system theme back to "light".
