[chimerax-users] Black/Dark Theme

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Valentyn,
I tried setting my Mac system preferences (General section) to dark mode.  After that, the ChimeraX toolbar and most of the ChimeraX tools have a dark background: Model Panel, Volume Viewer, etc. Exceptions are the Log and sequence windows.  However, this makes the Volume Viewer histogram impossible to see because it is black on black. Screenshot attached.
