<p>Hi Eric,</p>
<p>Thank you for the info. You have great software. You are right I
can see the menu with the in-window version. However, because the
menu background it somewhat transparent it makes it more difficult
to read. Granted I am a bit visually impaired. <br>
</p>
<p>Is there a way to make the menu background nontransparent? <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for your time and help. <br>
</p>
<p>Eric<br>

Hi Eric,
<div class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>This
is a current limitation of the Tk windowing toolkit that Chimera
uses. Perhaps future versions of the toolkit will fix this, but
for now that's the way it is. Your two options are:</div>

<div class="">Hi,<br class="">
<br class="">
Chimera is great. However in the latest download
for the Mac, I can no longer see the menus when
in Dark Mode on my Macbook Pro using Mojave.<br
class="">
<br class="">
In the attached file you can see the the
transparent background of the menu drop down
list makes it even harder.<br class="">
<br class="">
Is there a solution to adjust the menu text and
background color and making the menu background
opaque?<br class="">
<br class="">
Thank you for your help.<br class="">
<br class="">
Eric<br class="">
