Hey, just want to reference another forum post describing a bug with UI artifacts on the panel positions and any initial resizing of these.
https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=64942

There is also an issue filed on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/turn211/ProDark-Free ... /issues/11

The dark hard to see icons come from your system icon theme, try switching to another theme or check the instructions in Fine-tuning to force freecad to use the built-in icons. The active container color is not controlled by the stylesheet though, you need to change that color in FreeCAD's preference page. I agree that withish color is not a good default though, could be something to improve.

+1 on that
I am using Pro Dark Vertical UI, but the issue is (I believe) common to all the dark schemes:

Thank you!
Just tried and it works perfectly OK with appimage :)

Struggling with snap version though :oops:
copied ProdDark.qss to /home/username/snap/freecad-realthunder/common/.FreeCAD/Gui/Stylesheets/
and for some reason (probably to do with snap?) it just doesn't work.... :roll:

Could you PR that into the main repo? @uwestoehr can we get this merged before release? the theme is broken right now and merging it can't break anything else
