Recommended Posts

hi

i'm running sierra 10.12.6 and the notification panel is always white

i was used with yosemite or el capitan to have a dark color tone

 

can i change it?

can i have the dark tone color again?

it's no cosmetic , it's just i have problems to read with the white notification panel

i would like to have like the older

 

is there a way?

thanks

There is this;

 

MySIMBL https://github.com/w0lfschild/mySIMBL and https://github.com/w0lfschild/darkNC

 

Look at the screenshots and read the description for both and decide.

 

MySIMBL is a program that injects itself into macOS and could require to disable SIP - mySIMBL will tell you as mentioned on the description on the Github page linked to.

 

The problem with a system injector like SIMBL is that it injects itself into all of your programs despite not doing anything with those programs. Some program with macOS Sierra could announce that it does not like SIMBL and thus not function. It's rare these days - it's just a heads up.

 

I've personally been using mySIMBL on and off when using cDock themes and some of the great plugins that SIMBL allows. I'm not against SIMBL and I'll probably install it on the fresh installation of macOS High Sierra. It allows for much customization that Apple turned away from.

It's not a Sierra bug - Although I would like it to follow the system color too. It being always white is not great. It's not fixed in High Sierra either.

 

You will probably notice a few differences with the plugin and the real deal from El Capitan. The screenshot on the plugin website shows a little of the look of the Notification Center.

    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
