iOS dark mode

Hello,
You can now use the systemAppearance property to query the current dark or light appearance. I always get - light - even though I have switched on dark mode.
Does anyone have a similar problem?
How did you solve it? Is now mandatory in the AppStore.
Greetings Volker

Try this in the Message Box:
Code: Select all
put the systemAppearance into message box
LiveCode responds with the correct setting when I switch between Light and Dark in Systems Preferences > General preference pane.
I'm using LC 9.6.2-rc-2 on a Mac Mini (M1).

Works for me.
I'm using LC 9.6.2-rc-2 on a Mac Mini (2018 Intel, MacOS 11.3 Beta 2).
Mind you, reporting the systemAppearance is just the start, if you
want your stack to "go black" you will have to do quite a lot of heavy lifting . . .
Code: Select all
on openCard
put the systemAppearance into MACLOOK
if MACLOOK contains "dark" then
set the backgroundColor of card "KARD1" to black
set the backgroundColor of fld "INP" to black
set the borderColor of fld "INP" to white
set the textColor of fld "INP" to white
else
set the backgroundColor of card "KARD1" to white
set the backgroundColor of fld "INP" to white
set the borderColor of fld "INP" to black
set the textColor of fld "INP" to black
end if
end openCard
That code will NOT switch the stack's appearance if dark mode is switched while the stack is loaded
[this is on a Macintosh, not in iOS]
