Release Notes

General

• [Windows] Implemented a (long-awaited) full application dark theme. By default, it will be enabled if the system is set to use dark theme in applications, but it can be forced on or off in interface preferences. Note that Windows 10 20H1 or later is required for it to function correctly, and some system dialogs do not support dark themes at all (message box, colour picker and font picker dialogs)
• [Linux] Fixed various issues with high-DPI scaling
• Pop up the directory changes dialog over the current window instead of always the main window (thanks @eevee)
• [Linux] Fixed the splash window not showing correctly since GTK3 (thanks @eevee) (Splash screen never paints on Linux #1722)
