Improvement: sync tray icon color with Windows theme

JenChiaik opened this issue · 3 comments

In Windows 11, Dark / Light modes can be seperately applied to Windows GUI and app GUI.
But when I enable sync tray icon color with Windows theme, it actually sync with App GUI's color theme rather than Windows.
That is, if my task bar is in DARK mode and app GUI is in LIGHT mode, the tray icon is DARK in the DARK taskbar.
Is it because Windows provides no api to access the Window GUI mode?

Many times, when the computer wakes up after turning on or sleeping, the color of the taskbar icon does not synchronize with the window theme. But when you open FanControl, the main interface of the software follows the window theme normally. At this time, you can reopen "sync theme with windows" in the settings, and the taskbar icon will return to normal.

It has been a month since you raised this issue and the bug has not been fixed.
According to my observation, this problem actually occurs because when the system switches between dark and light modes, although fancontrol also synchronizes the interface theme at the same time, it does not save this setting. When you open fancontrol and close it, you will be prompted to save the settings.
So in my opinion, the setting for switching between dark and light interface colors can be separated into a configuration file and then enable automatic saving, which will solve the problem.

This issue was fixed after V196 release. : )
