Switch off Dark Mode

ParaView Support
1

Hello,

I am using Dark mode/appearance on Mac OSX 12.3 in my general system preferences, but I’m not a big fan of it while using paraview. Is there a way to make paraview 5.10.1 use Light mode although Dark mode is selected in the general system preferences of the machine?

Thank you,

Jan

Hello,

You can probably use this:

Just tweak it for a light theme.

Sorry about the necro, but I wanted to do the same thing and found that running the following one-liner in a terminal will set ParaView to light mode on Mac, independent of system preference:

defaults write org.paraview.ParaView NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance -bool Yes
