Description
The control button colors do not change in the System theme.
I chose the button colors with consideration for the OS light and dark modes, but I don’t think they are perfect.
Given my current knowledge, it is difficult for me to make any further changes.
If a better solution exists, please feel free to close this PR.
This issue does not occur in version 31.0.4.
It appears to have been caused by the following changes:
76e1818 and 28960a4
Before (version 31.0.4)
Note: OBS does not switch to dark mode even when the OS is set to dark mode.

Motivation and Context
I found a post mentioning that after updating OBS, the control buttons no longer change color. (I’m not sure whether the user was using the System theme.)
I’m not sure how many people are using the system theme, but I’ll fix it (even though I don’t use it myself).
How Has This Been Tested?
Windows 11 25H2
Tested in both Windows light and dark modes.
I changed the System.obt file.
I’m not sure if the code changes are correct.
You can test by changing the
