Expected Behavior

The selected state of the controls within the "Find" control should be clearly visible, even in dark mode. Proper contrast and visual indicators should ensure that users can easily identify which options are selected.

Actual Behavior

In dark mode, the selected state of controls within the "Find" control is not clearly visible. The lack of proper highlighting or contrast makes it difficult to distinguish which controls are selected.
