How to open Xcode 10 Dark Theme in MacOS 10.13.5

How to enable Xcode 10 Dark Theme in MacOS 10.13.5

Need to have 10.14 for system wide dark mode.


But you can change to dark in XCode directly:

- open XCode preferences

- select Font & color

- select Dark mode

That means. I can not enable the drak theme in MacOS 10.13.5, could't I?

Dark theme inside XCode, yes. I just did it today, on 10.13.4, XCode 9.4.

But you can change to dark in XCode directly:

- open XCode preferences

- select Font & color

- select Dark mode


@Claude31 could you show a screenshotwith "Dark Mode" switcher? I can't see it in my Xcode 10.

Unfortunately, no images in this forum !


If you give a temprary mail, I will send you a screen capture.


Just tested again in XCode10, OSX 10.13.4, it works instantly. Just hope we speak of the same thing.

- open XCode preferences

- select Fonts & colors

- select theme : Default(Dark)

No, it's not the same thing. You can't set apps to dark mode in 10.13.x or earlier.


When you choose the "Default (Dark)" color scheme, it sets the editor pane colors, but it doesn't change the navigator or inspector colors or the general window "chrome".

Sure, it is not a complete dark mode.


But for text editors, that seem pretty close.
