Some parts of UI are not updated on theme switch about auto-dark-mode HOT 5 CLOSED

I am using the official API for switching the theme i.e.

QuickChangeLookAndFeel.switchLafAndUpdateUI(LafManager.getInstance(), targetLaf, true);

I'll have to see if there is a more reliable api but please consider reporting this to Jetbrains.

@eugene-stativka I see you are using the material theme, it maybe a good idea to see if it's related to this plugin in particular. Or the combination of the theme and intellij.

@bric3 It also occurs when using the Dracula theme. I have had it happen myself but could not reproduce it reliably.

I wonder if this has to do with updating the laf asynchronously. IntelliJ platform itself only ever calls it synchronously i.e.

QuickChangeLookAndFeel.switchLafAndUpdateUI(LafManager.getInstance(), targetLaf, false);

I guess I'll do the same thing.
However it's still worth while to report that changing the laf asynchronously does not work properly.

Edit: The theme settings panel itself also calls the method asynchronously, so there is something else at play here.
Nonetheless I'll test how it behaves when calling it synchronously.

@eugene-stativka The new pre-release hopefully resolves this problem.
