After effects dark mode bug (MacOS)

Explorer ,
Oct 03, 2022 Oct 03, 2022

As you can see in the image, I have a problem that only exists in after effects. I am using macOS version 12.6. This is a problem that has existed since dark mode came. I did a lot of research on the adobe forum and couldn't find a solution. Then I contacted apple support and reported the situation to them. Apple confirmed that this is a problem and stated that they will establish a corporate communication with Adobe to resolve it. My expectation is that adobe cooperates on this issue. As I am usually a night worker, this bug is an annoying and negative problem for me.dark-mode-issue.jpgexpand image

I think all that's needed might be to set NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance to false in Info.plist, so maybe this could get taken care of soon?

 

In the meantime, the following command force overrides After Effects to follow the system theme:

defaults write com.adobe.AfterEffects NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance -bool false

Hi @rajans,

Thank you for reporting this issue. We are aware there is additional work to complete in order to fully support Dark Mode for app bars and file dialogs on macOS. We hope to complete this work in a future version of After Effects.

 

Thanks again for reporting this issue,
