Woah, that's the weirdest bug I've ever seen 😐
And I can recreate it as well! I'll fix it asap, thanks!

I'm still investigating, but I can't find a fix. It could depend on the Material Components Google library

I just had a look at it and I assume that this is caused by setting android:background for the MaterialAlertDialog styles:

birday/app/src/main/res/values/styles.xml

Line 79 in 527de6f

<item name="android:background">?colorBackgroundFloating</item>

birday/app/src/main/res/values/styles.xml

Line 86 in 527de6f

<item name="android:background">@drawable/dialog_bg_monet</item>

I only did a quick test and removing this at least resolved the issue both when using the Monet theme and other themes, but I didn't check any of the other dialogs which are probably influenced by that as well.

Thanks, I had no clue it could be the issue, but you're right! I'll remove this color, even if I'm probably using it to theme the preference dialogs or something similar 😕

Fixed this and other theme-related bugs in b04dbb1 , it was harder than I expected 😥
