Question

AIR Application on iMac

Good day AIR developers. 

This is my first post on Adobe forums and ran across something I'm hoping someone can help with.

In the past 2 months or so, we've noticed a change in our AIR applications appearance when running on an iMac ( Sierra 10.12.6 )

This change has to do with the color of the title bars on native windows.

At first they matched the color of any other application running on the iMac.  The standard soft light grey I would assume it's called.

Suddenly, it changed to a very "dark grey" that does not match anything else installed on the machine.

Even when grabbing the title bar in an attempt the move any of our applications native windows around produces these

strange "Triangles" on the far left and right corners of the title bar that appear to flicker / appear & disappear sporadically.

Was this due to an update regarding Adobe Air?  Not a major problem but is does disrupt the aesthetics of our application a bit.

I was just wondering if anyone else had noticed this and if so, is there way to reverse it.

Thanks for any assistance.

I assume this is an app that uses systemChrome = true? If that's the case then I believe those elements should be provided by the OS and so in a way have nothing to do directly with AIR, I could be wrong of course.

Hi.

Thanks for the reply.  Yes it's all set to system chrome so technically the OS should be providing the defaults correctly.

All other native windows on the OS ( not related to our app ) look normal and are styled normally.

Its just the AIR app.  It looked perfect in the beginning and then changed on its own.

It may be related to some Apple update in conjunction with AIR but there seems to be no way to change it regardless.

Thanks again.
