Viewing that with Swarth set to its normal "stylesheet processor" results in... basically no change other than the banner at the top becoming a lighter color.

[verified with a fresh & new unmodified copy of Pale Moon Portable v29.4.4]

Simply put, under "Manage configured pages", if you select "Simple stylesheet" for a given website domain, it will instead behave as if you selected "Color inversion"

This is particularly problematic on pixiv.net where the artist's works page requires using "Simple stylesheet" (using "Color inversion" makes the text of visited links invisible) but an individual artwork page requires using "Color inversion" (using "Simple stylesheet" makes the actual artwork invisible).

Worse still is that this extension doesn't seem to be able to handle treating "pixiv.net/en/users" and "pixiv.net/en/artwork" with different stylesheet settings (if I add both, one of them just straight-up ignores the individual setting and instead just uses the global stylesheet setting)

For reference, both pages are technically functional with "Stylesheet processor" but it causes you to be blinded by the light. And another art website, deviantart.com only works correctly with "Stylesheet processor"

requires "Simple stylesheet" - Example pixiv.net artist's works page:

requires "Color inversion" - Example pixiv.net individual artwork page:

"if there's a prefers-color-scheme: dark in the CSS, retain the page style"

This was tested with a completely new copy of Pale Moon portable 31.0.0

And for reference, in order to even access pixiv nowadays, you must first have "dom.webcomponents.enabled" set to 'true' in Pale Moon's about:config. From there, in order to enable pixiv's dark theme, you must be signed into an account on pixiv and then manually enable the dark theme by toggling the according switch in the drop-down menu that appears when you click your profile picture located in the top-right of any pixiv page.

Anyway, the issue is quite simple. If your pixiv account is set to use the dark theme then, whenever you first visit a non-cached page (e.g. the first time you navigate to an artist pixiv page), swarth's stylesheet processor won't fully "kick-in" and will miss processing the background unless you manually reload the page a second time. You can tell if this is the case because pixiv's default dark theme uses a dark-ish grey background while swarth by default uses a full-on black background (interestingly, it seems that swarth's colors for text and links are still correctly applied no matter what).

That being said, you can still reliably make swarth's stylesheet processor fail to activate by simply doing a complete uncached reload of the artist's page via Ctrl+F5 (or holding shift while clicking the GUI reload button).

I tested this using the following page, though it seems to occur with any artist:

• https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/4692512
• https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/4692512/artworks

OS: Debian
Browser: Palemoon Version 29.4.4 (64-bit)
Swarth Version 1.0.5

Opening Swarth preferences allows me to interact normally with the Swarth preferences window, I can update a colour code in the box manually. However, when I click on a colour to update it via the colour selection window, that window pops up but is completely frozen.

Nothing will close it unless I go back to the Swarth preferences window and close that.

I'm not sure how you invoke this colour selection tool, but I must assume it's a palemoon tool and not something that you have added yourself. Either way I felt it was important for you to know this issue is happening, at least on the Linux version of palemoon.

If you'd like additional information or logs please instruct me on how I can generate that for you.

Occurs with "stylesheet processor" and "simple stylesheet".

Interestingly, using "color inversion" results in a different issue - the text box instead appears in the bottom right corner of the page itself rather than in your browser (meaning you have to scroll to the bottom of web page first).

On v1.0.7, when loading a new blank tab or when navigating to https://phoronix.com, you do not get any sort of white flash at all.

On v1.0.8 and v1.0.9, loading a new blank tab or navigating to https://phoronix.com results in a white flash before Swarth "kicks in."

Up until very recently, the stylesheet processor has worked perfectly fine for Phoronix's benchmark charts.

However, I just discovered today that I have to fallback to straight-up color inversion for the labels on benchmark chart to even be readable - both the stylesheet processor and the simple stylesheet do not work:

1. do a fresh install of v1.0.4 and restart your browser

2. load some webpage in a new tab (you can use this very github issue page you're currently reading)

3. open swarth's preferences and set custom colors for at least (I haven't tried the others) "unvisited links" and "visited links" by manually typing in a value (e.g. I used "#ffcccc" and "#ccccff") - do NOT click "OK"

4. before clicking OK, set the 'Default color method' to "Retain page style"

5. click OK.

6. without loading any other webpage, look at the tab you previously loaded from step 2 (e.g. this current github issue page)

From there, no matter if you then try changing the 'Default color method' setting to anything else, any webpage from any domain in any tab will always be stuck with the default visited and unvisited color links.

This issue only resolves itself if you either change the colors again or restart the browser.
