Glenn,

Mine are black on grey and I’m happy with that. Attached 6K file. Have not tweaked it since installation many versions ago.

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden

Just updated to 5950 on my iMac running Big Sur 11.7.2, and the number in my menu bar counter has turned white, which makes it impossible to read against the light gray of the menu bar itself. Is there a way to adjust this? (I tried all four counters; they have different color circles around the number, but the number is always white.)

I think the counter digits were always white. What has changed is the oval background for the counters. It used to be a solid color, but now it is a hollow oval outline with color on the border and a transparent interior. Personally, I like this because the vivid, solid background blobs were out of character with the rest of the menubar icons, but I use dark mode for everything so I find it is still legible. I found that the background colors can be tweaked by messing with the “hidden” preferences, but I have found any way to adjust the foreground color.
