[solved/improved] dark mode - rv3 - 02-10-2019

Macos 10.14 has a feature called "dark mode", found in System Preferences under General. Turning this on makes most wings3d dialog boxes almost unreadable as the text turns white, but the background stays light grey.

Workaround is to not use dark mode.

Hi! rv3.
Currently,Wings3D v2.2.2 used wxWidget an user interface library.
The libray version is v3.0.4.0, that version is not support Dark Mode in Mojave

You can check the version,Select "Help >Software/OpenGL information" in top menu.
And,see version of 2D-API section.

In wxWidgetv3.1.2,It seems that initial support of Dark Mode.

But I don't know whether Wings3D developer makes adopt the version.
I think the version isn't work stable yet.

I tested wings with wxWidgets-3.1.2 on Mac to get better Mojave support, some things have been solved but there are many
problems which causes wings to be unusable with it, the context menus doesn't work at all for example :-(
So until that is fixed there is not much we can do about it.

This should be better now
