Hi, this should be fixed in a newer not-quite-released-yet version:

Instructions to fix:

Download these two files and extract with the built-in Archiver tool in macOS (avoid a third-party one, since it might extract symlinks and permissions incorrectly):

https://fs-uae.net/files/FS-UAE/Stab..._x86-64.tar.xz
https://fs-uae.net/files/FS-UAE-Laun..._x86-64.tar.xz

Move FS-UAE.app and FS-UAE-Launcher.app from the respective FS-UAE[-Launcher]/macOS/x86-64 directories to /Applications and delete the remaining extracted files.

@widstar1063 Did you get a chance to try this yet?

I've tried and the problem is fixed, though IMHO the UI looks weird with only the text boxes dark and not the whole window itself. Also the UI does not react to changing the OSX appearance from light to dark. Its no big deal though.

However in the default theme, you now cannot read the selected menu items on the settings screen. Possibly the text colour is the same as the selected item colour? It is readable in the dark theme. (This is on launcher version 3.1.13)
