Description

Attachment: Screenshot_20191223_111507.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

• Set Firefox to Dark theme
• Close Firefox
• Open Firefox

The problem resolves itself when I do the following

• Open Themes under Add-ons
• Set default theme
• Set dark theme

Actual results:

The following elements in Firefox UI are colored black instead of white

• Bookmark bar text
• Tab title text
• Back, forward, refresh, library icons
• Overflow menu icon, downloads icon, hamburger menu icon
  The following elements in Firefox UI are colored white instead of black
• Background color of back button
• Background color of every tab except the current tab

Expected results:

The opposite of the above, all Firefox UI should have black/dark backgrounds and white text.

I could not reproduce this issue using the latest Nightly 73.0a1 or Firefox 71 on Ubuntu 18.04 x 64.

Coolshanth94, does this happen if you log in into a new profile ??

You can use the steps here to create a new profile and log in again:

Also, you might try this issue on our latest Nightly build and check if the same issue occurs there as well.

You can find the build here:

Thanks!
