Description

When switching from dark/light Mint-Y themes, the panel bar's color persists in its dark theme. Nothing happens when toggling the dark mode slider in the panel preference's appearance tab. I use Mint-X as the color I expect the panel bar to be when in a light theme.

When using Mint-X, the panel bar's color is what I expect when using a light theme.

Research direction

The issue does not name a file or test. Start by reproducing the problem in Mint-Y while switching between dark and light themes and using the panel appearance preference; inspect the theme styles involved in the panel bar. Done means the Mint-Y panel changes to the expected light color when light mode is selected, as it does with Mint-X.
