Product Version5.0.2 
Target Version5.0.2 
Summary0018656: Upgrading to 5.0.2 changes the user's skin
DescriptionIf the user is running 5.0.1 with the Material Design skin (the light one) and upgrades to 5.0.2
-->
The skin changes to Material Design Dark!

This isn't a huge issue, but it's an annoyance that should be prevented as users expect to continue using their existing look and feel (even if we're making changes 'under the hood').

Note: If the user was previously using Material Design (Dark) skin with 5.0.1, then installing 5.0.2 retains that skin.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

It's changed from 'light' to 'dark' scheme because it's the default settings for our new Material Design skin.
Out installer currently does not support JSON parse so it will not be easy to detect what skin name was used in previous version (to preserve deprecated dark skin).
I prefer to postpone as i think it's not a big issue.

OK. This will have to be mentioned in the update notice.
