Design view invisible elements icons invisible in dark app theme

Question

I'm wondering if anyone has a fix for the missing invisible elements from the design view window when you have chosen to view invisible elements? If I choose either of the two dark app themes the icons are invisible. They're visible on the two lighter app themes. I saw a question from June last year but it was marked as answered but the problem still persists. Any ideas? Is there are way to edit the UI ourselves or make our own app themes? I know I can create custom code colouring but what about app themes?

Here's the app in a light app theme with a split screen showing the invisibles.Here's the app in a dark app theme with a split screen showing the invisibles are invisible. Funnily, there are blank placeholders there where the icons should be so it seems like they meant to create a different icon set but didn't bundle it with the app.Here is my test code:Invisible Elements Test

Heading 1

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Fuga pariatur, adipisci
neque tempore illum molestiae laborum officiis aspernatur, quis deserunt nihil, esse ab amet veniam provident! Maxime,
dolorum aspernatur provident.

Table Heading
something	something	something

View > Design View Options > Visual Aids (all items checked).And this is Design View with a dark interface. I'll admit, some icons are faint but even these tired old eyes can see them.
