Make the UI theme compatible with light syntax themes

[silvestreh]

The user interface should be readable and usable with light syntax themes. Especially those shipped with Atom:

• Atom Light
• Base16 Tomorrow Light
• Solarized Light
• One Light

Seems to be mostly fine now, but needs more testing… anyone using a light theme please create a new issue if you find something off.

In light themes the subtitles of the readmes are white, and pretty hard to see.

It's not related to this, but when i move the tabs sometimes these white borders appear, but on light themes its hard to notice.

Also, my monitor have low contrast and it's very hard to see these kind of toggles, the scrollbar and the selected text, and its harder on light themes. But I managed changed the color of some of them to the accent color. I think it would be very cool to have some option to use the accent color on more things.

And thank you for the great UI theme.

I have a similar problem -- I'm using the Grandson Of Obsidian Syntax theme (which is a dark theme), but for some reason, Atom Material UI thinks it's a light theme, so it colors the rest of the UI just like @douglasmfreitas's screenshot shows.

What's the exact configuration in the Syntax theme that Atom Material UI uses to determine whether the theme is light or dark?

@cobrabr Grandson of Obsidian is an outdated syntax theme. It uses some deprecated classes and that's probably the issue here. There's not much I can do about it.

Yeah, I noticed it after I posted my comment. Thanks for looking into it, anyway. :)

In addition to the highlights in README files, the command palette also highlights letters matching a search in white font, making them impossible to read.

This is using the Atom Light syntax theme.

It also makes the wrap guide invisible. For example, using the Atom Light UI theme and the Atom Light syntax theme, you can see the wrap guide:

But it's not there with the Atom Material UI theme:
