Comments

macOS is in charge of selecting the color for the title bar based on whether or not Dark Mode is enabled system-wide. To enable Dark Mode system-wide, open the System Preferences app, click General, and change Appearance to Dark.

Okay, I see now that this is indeed an issue with the official builds of MuseScore. My self-builds do not have this problem. Maybe that is because I am using the latest developer tools from Apple.

As long as CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET is kept at 10.12, the result should run on macOS 10.12 or later. And macOS 10.14 and Xcode 10 ought to be available in Travis CI, but I can't really say for sure.

Fix version 3.2.1

Was fixed in 3.2.1, but is back in 3.2.2, as the corresponding fix (building it on macOS 10.14, using XCode 10.2) had been reverted to avoid a significant performance drop on macOS 10.14+ machines

Fixed in branch 3.x, commit a4cfffe7db

Previously, when you selected MuseScore's Dark theme,
the title bars of the windows on macOS stayed light.
Now, they will also change, along with the MuseScore theme._
