        Seriously, is anyone working on this or no one literally cares?

          After the last update, the dev tool panel is appearing in that nasty default Chrome color instead of dark mode.

          Even after setting it, it returns to "System Preference" after a reboot.

          To reproduce:

          1.Restart PC
          2.Open Opera
          3. Press <CTRL>+<SHIFT>+<I>
          4. Observer color scheme is Standard.
          5. Set to a different color scheme.
          6. Repeat steps.

            Same thing here... Can't deal with the light mode anymore. It's almost one month already.

              Same problem here, if this doesn't get resolved soon im switching and I highly recommend anybody else having this problem to also do so, because its obvious how important feedback is around here.

                The issue still persists on operaGX. The devtool window is light mode by default but when I check the theme option it is set to dark mode. Switching it to light then dark again makes it go into dark mode but it resets back to light mode on refresh. Please fix!!

                  Having the same problem, raised as a bug with opera twice now and have seen no fix (surely this is a quick fix?!), as a web developer who has chosen Opera as my browser of choice it seems those who chuckled at me are being proven right. Back to chrome it seems....

                      @leocg Which means what? Are devs working on it, any ETA? Or it is just "known" and ignored?

                        @gonzalesl It means that Opera knows about the issue and it's in the tracker to be fixed.

                          Same here. I think its funny the devs didn't see this before shipping the update. And even so, it wasn't fixed yet...

                            @leocg Thank you. I think it would be beneficial for all of us if it was communicated at first place. Also to see a public roadmap 😉

                                            It seems the issue was resolved in Opera Developer version 115.0.5314.0.

                                            Who knows when this fix will be rolled out to Opera One.
