I want to make Xcode alone dark mode in light mode

Closed this issue · 2 comments

I want to switch Xcode to the Mojave Dark Mode, but everything else stay in the traditional Light mode, can it be achieved?

Hey @Jonzzs, you could do that to some degree but you would have to live with a dark dock and menu bar. The way Apple implemented NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearatnce, which Gray builds on top, is that you can only require an app to use a light appearance while dark mode is on. You cannot opt-in to force a dark appearance in a light environment. You could do this with the early betas but that "feature" was dropped.

So, the workaround can be found here #33 (comment)

Hope that helps, cheers!

Thanks, I know now.
