DEVONthink 3.8 - Mentions - Black text in Dark Mode

Reading DEVONthink 3.8’s release notes was like “What?”, “Wow!”, “What?” There’s sooooo much useful stuff :smiley: Congratulations to the whole team!

Trying the Mentions inspector …

The new Document > Mentions inspector lists content matches based on the name or alias of the selected item

… the found text is shown as black text on black background (I’ve selected the last line):

Thanks for the kudos and confirmed on the dark mode issue.

So, some hours into DEVONthink 3.8. After testing Mentions and not changing the inspector’s tab (i.e. the Mentions inspector is shown) I can see that this will be extremely useful :heart_eyes:

Thanks a lot for this interesting feature.

I wonder if the click on “occurrence” to drill down into the files is something you plan to implement as well?

I.e. by clicking on concrete “occurrence” DT will open the right part of the file.

Right now, only clicking on “mentions”, the file is opened but not the exact position of the occurrence.

Not yet planned but maybe in a future release.

:+1: that would be a very helpful addition

The issue persists here. Any solution?

It’s still DEVONthink 3.8. Wait for the update.

Hi, I have the opposite issue: white text on white background.

DT 3.9.8

Does relaunching the app fix this? Which macOS version do you use?

Nope, problem still persists after relaunch and computer restart.

MacOS 15.3.1

Do you use any accessibility options, see System Settings?

My reduce transparency is turned on. Turning it off fixes the issue. However is there a possible fix that will work with reduce transparency turned on?

Confirmed here.

We’ll check this.

And the next release will fix this.
