Appearance issue

Thanks for developing MDict. It is really helpful. There is an issue on MacOS version where appearance is set to light. Once quit and reopened, it returns to system state. Also there is a misalignment when I click on appearance and then the list of Dark, light and system is misaligned. Can you fix it? Thanks.

一直在用Windows端的MDict ，全文查找（Ctrl-Shift-F）和全文查找下一个（F4）的使用频率很高，希望移动端也能全文查找。
