System Light, Chrome Dark not work

I set the System in Light, Chrome in Dark, this doesn't work. I hope most of the software is in Light

Hey @lijialiang, unfortunately, Gray only works if you have the system in dark mode. This is a limitation that Apple as set for us. I'm gonna make this more clear because that limitation is a bit ambiguous right now.

The limitation resides in the setting that Gray applies to the apps which are setting NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance to true. This means that under Dark mode, force the application to use the light appearance. However, you cannot reverse this setting to work the other way around, you could in the early betas but Apple removed it before the final release of Mojave.

Sorry for this inconvenience, but my hands are tied on this one ๐Ÿ˜ž

Thank you very much for your reply. You have already completed this great thing. There is still a question. Can I set the system status bar to Light?

A bit unsure about that, try Googling on Mojave dark mode menubar using terminal commands or something like that. I've seen something like it in the past but I'm a bit unsure right now.

If you do find anything be sure to post it here because I'd love to add it as a feature to Gray if it is possible ๐Ÿ˜„

Ok, thank you again for your reply :)
