How do I change the window elements (the frame around the Editor or Binder, for instance) like I see in themes like “A Midsummer’s Night” and similar?
I’ve looked until I am crosseyed. I have found the answer for Windows, but not for Mac.
Thanks in advance
You kind of did. Because the answer is “no”. The closest you’ll get in macOS is probably “wallpaper tinting” (System Settings → Appearance), that’s the extent of Apple’s tolerance for colored windows.
(aside from running the Windows version in a VM)
I no longer see that in Sequoia. I am not being clear.
I am aiming for this:
I don’t know what a Rodder Madder is, but I can tell you two things from this screenshot:
So either you change macOS to dark mode / theme or Scrivener (should be on “auto” by default) to achieve what you see there.
Rose Madder is a dark mode theme, it will switch to it if you use it, and stop using it if you switch to light mode.
I’m not sure where you saw the stock user interface change colour in Mac screenshots though. The only thing I can think of is that some older screenshots will display the old blue editor highlight when the view is split. That is now driven by the accent colour you choose in the system Appearance settings pane.
Also, from your screenshot it looks like you may have the Reduce transparency accessibility setting enabled, which will suppress the wallpaper colour showing up all over the place—and in particular to this demonstration, the title bar. With that off the menu would be a rainbow.
Scrivener largely ignores the wallpaper anyway though, so if you prefer that setting on (as I do), you might as well keep it.
It appears that I misunderstood how things worked.Thanks, all
