Temperature text color inconsistent #258

Closed udirub closed 3 years ago

Hello,

I've set the temperature text color to labelColor but it doesn't always change like the CPU usage text's color change when the system changes the color of the menu bar.

I'm running macOS 12.0.1 on the new 16" M1 Pro.

How do you get the toolbar swich to Light mode? Mine always uses white text.

udirub commented 3 years ago

When you set a dynamic desktop wallpaper it changes the color of the toolbar as the desktop changes.

I tried that but it didn't for me. I’ll have a look.

It also happens when I play a movie in full screen. The text in the menu bar is white when in the movie and turns back to black when exiting the movie.

The thing is my text was always white. I had tried with the lightest background image I could find. Now I tried again with a plain color and I see the effect. And picking a custom color is indeed strange. It seems to do the opposite then what I would expect. So for me, picking "textBackgroundColor" seems to work as expected.

I found the ‘Color tint’ setting in the About settings very nice. Sliding it all the way to the right looks nice (with my adjusted drawing).

Yeah, I noticed that sometimes it works in reverse for some reason. I set it to a color that should be black and it turns out white. But after a restart it switched back to the right order. The color tint does look nice. I'll give it a try and see if it remains consistent.

Should be fixed in https://github.com/yujitach/MenuMeters/releases/tag/2.1.6 .
