Dark mode not supported in GUI on macOS Big Sur [Title and comment changed]

Open chadbert2 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Original bug was for wrong repo.

This issue is about the GUI application on Mac OS Big Sur. When using dark mode, the text is not readable. I may try to look into this issue myself to see if I can fix it.

This would be a tkinter issue. The library used for the UI elements needs to be updated to recognize Dark Mode or a new UI library that does support it needs to be located and used.

It seems that because it's an "untrusted" application, it's not allowing Dark Mode to apply to everything: https://stackoverflow.com/a/55516222

I've been trying to use ttk to style the elements and it's a larger challenge than I expected. Some comments I've seen online have suggested alternate UI engines (other than tkinter) that may natively support the Dark Mode in Mojave. Alas, I don't have a MacOS machine to test on. :\
