Blue arrow not visible

When the network usage is high enough, the widget can draw the usage graph so high that it will be at the same level as the arrows. Because an arrow and the graph have the same color, the arrow blends in and "disappears". See attached image.

If the arrow had an outline, shadow or that whole part of the widget was on a background with some level of opacity, it would always be visible.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download a lot
2. See the blue arrow vanish

OBSERVED RESULT
The arrow is not visible

EXPECTED RESULT
The arrow is always visible

On systems with proper fontconfig files, these arrows are emojis now, so that won't happen. Still, the legend probably shouldn't be drawn right on top of the graph area anyway,

all system monitor widgets have been recently rewritten from scratch
