    Yosemite dark mode makes dark tray icons almost invisible. Is there a way to use a monochrome icon or to detect dark mode to choose the appropriate icon file?

    Thanks!

      Hi,

      AFAIK, you'll have to use the NSAppearance class for that and write some native code to get the current appearance. Something like:

      @
      bool isDark() const
      {
      return [[[NSAppearance currentAppearance] name] containsString:NSAppearanceNameVibrantDark]);
      }
      @

      Beware: not tested
