Adapting a 'codepen' icon made with CSS

 I adapted a 'codepen' icon made with CSS made of rectangles made with 'clip-path', with the sides rotated to form a cube.


Some of the sides are moved to the front with 'translateZ'.


I colored the sides to see how it works:


    'codepen.io/Bert-Beckwith/pen/jENyyaK'


This is a different way of making a cube. Another way is to rotate 'div' elements.


Maybe there is a bug with Chrome: sometimes the sides of the cube disappear if I change the background color of their container. The sides reappear if I click the icon. I tried reflowing the cube, adding 'z-index' and adding '!important' but these did not fix the bug.


It is best to use SVG's for icons but I learn about CSS and my old browser does not show SVG's in HTML pages.

Dark mode using 'invert' does not work on Firefox

 Implementing 'dark mode' with 'invert' on the 'html' tag does not seem to work on the old Firefox used in my local libraries. This version of Firefox does not invert the background. This Firefox just inverts the elements you add. The Firefox developers feel they are following the specification. Using 'invert' when there is an 'overlay' scrollbar on Chrome sometimes makes the scrollbar disappear. I am using the last version of Chrome on Windows7. I understand 'overlay' scrollbars have been removed from the latest versions of Chrome. Of course, a dark scrollbar on a black background does not make sense. So I would need to use 'color-scheme' to change the color of the scrollbar. But 'invert' does not work well with 'color-scheme'. I could not set the colour of this 'overlay' scrollbar with properties like '-webkit-scrollbar-thumb'.  So I am going to have to implement 'dark mode' by setting the...
