Dark Mode Stata 16 on macOS

[Jakob Poulsen]

Hi,

I'm using Stata 16 on macOS Catalina and Dark Mode enabled in the macOS System Preferences. However I cannot figure out how to enable Dark Mode/Dark Color Scheme for the Do-file editor? Thus, I can't see the cursor in the Do-file editor. Works fine for all the other Stata windows (results, command, etc)

Any advice? Is it not possible with dark theme in the do-file editor???

Thanks

I don't experience the problem you describe. However, I'm still on Mojave and this is the first time I have turned dark mode on, and I do experience problems getting the Viewer window to revert to light mode when I change the settings. I'm running

I'd say that this may well be best handled by sending a report to Stata Technical Services.

I had the same problem - I had to do the following.
Right-click with a mouse in the results area - preferences - change to dark for both results and viewer. Then exit and click on the Stata icon - open up preference and then again choose dark mode there. Post this everything has been in the dark mode.
