Classic Mode v. Dark Mode Text color glitches on 2022.10

[jocolyma]

I'm on 2022.10 on Monterey 12.6 on an iMac Pro (2017)

As we know Dark mode is the default. I prefer Classic mode most of the time and Dark mode sometimes. In Dark mode (the default) we have white text on sa black background. Vice versa for Classic mode. However, and this is random, I'm ending up with white text on a white background when switching modes. Most notable in Tracks bin, clip bin and comments window beneath fader. So being white on white... well I can't see a thing...

Anyone else experiencing this issue.

Please note, you may have to switch back and forth a few times, as it seems random. Also, experiment with typing something in the comments window in one mode and then switching and typing something new in the other mode.

I am also seeing this. 2022.10 on a Mac Studio M1 Max, Monterey 12.4.
My experience:
With dark mode, AudioSuite menu is white on light gray. Readable but not easily.
Switching to Classic mode the AudioSuite is good, but the clip bin is pretty much white on white and not readable.

Personally, I try Dark mode with each update, and keep going back to Classic mode. This is one of those things that appeals to some, but not to me

I think the AudioSuite visibility issue was fixed in 2022.2. Can't recall at the moment.

As far as the clips & track lists going white, a restart of Pro Tools usually fixes it.
That's been my experience on Windows anyway.

I do this too..

I don't know why there's only the two modes though..
Surely they could ship it with 7 or 8 different 'skins' to choose from..
