I’m using the dark display with slicer and there seems to be a bug with the Display tab of the Markups module, here’s a screenshot of what I’m seeing.

Operating system: macOS Big Sur Version 11.2  
Slicer version: 4.11.20210226 r29738 / 7a593c8  
Expected behavior: Able to read sliders and such in the Display tab of the Markups module  
Actual behavior: See screenshot, much of the information for each slider is not shown
