so does dark mode only affect the color of the dock and menubar?

I thought we found images and code baked into the system that would make everything dark...

Yeah — back in DP1, before we even had the ability to enable dark mode via the Terminal, people were renaming resource files from the dark theme so they'd be activated under the graphite theme. It looks like Apple was experimenting with making windows dark, including the titlebar, drop downs, the Finder background, etc.

But remember, at WWDC, Apple purposely previewed dark mode in a screenshot that had no open windows — just the dock and menubar visible. They haven't really committed themselves to anything. Dark mode may or may not become a truly system-wide theme as time goes on. Right now, it doesn't make a heck of a lot of sense to touch anything but the menubar and dock, because a lot of UI components, even in the light theme, are still being heavily tweaked.

Personally I'd love if you got both--the Dark mode applied only to the dock and menus (which I'll definitely use), and a dark mode applied to windows etc as well (which I'm not sure I'd use but I could see many people using it). But that sort of middle ground is un-Apple-like :p

Wow!I cant wait; any idea on when the proposed release month is or such?

Given that Mavericks was released in October. I'd place a safe bet that Yosemite will also release in October as well. The public beta however may come this month or in August

And if that doesn't work you can always download the DMG from the Dev Center. Sure its the long way around but at least you get the update
 
2 weeks waiting for the DP3 and all they update are a bunch of shallow things :confused:
Unless there´s performance updates i haven´t seen?

thank you for the insight. makes perfect sense.

here's to hoping they expand the feature, but in light of everything else they need to do to get yosemite sorted out, i understand why this would need to fall by the wayside for now.

Not sure why some people want black app windows. I think that would look tacky and overkill. Wouldn't mind if they made the regular right clock menu black though.

Not necessarily black, but perhaps shades of grey and charcoal, with black bits.

The dark mode seems pointless if Finder windows are still garishly bright and folders are glow-in-the-dark blue.

Because of the continuity features it is looking like Apple wants to release Yosemite and iOS 8 at the same time. And yes, after updating to DP 3 my memory pressure has dropped by half and my mac never heats up anymore. Also all the continuity features work perfectly between my Mac, iPhone 5S and iPad.

Well, you shouldn't get the update because you should have payed the $99 like everyone else and get the DP legally! In fact, the only reason people are supposed to download the DPs are to develop apps for them, not just to get a sneak peek.

Look buddy, I did the same thing. Just because I don't have 99$ to spare, being a college student and all, does not mean that I'm suddenly less qualified of a developer. Anyone with proper identification can pay for this "Developer" program; it does not qualify them developers. How about everyone give it a rest and stop feeling overly entitled? As far as legality is concerned, as long as you are on Apple hardware, there's no such thing as piracy, especially in light of the last 2 free releases of OS X.

As far as the update goes, sign out and back into your account, and restart your Mac. There's no reason why it wouldn't appear.

For me it is the other way around. It seems to be performing very well on a late 2013 rMBP 15"

Perhaps Apple has some more love for some models than for other. BTW I did an upgrade from Mavericks. Not a clean install.

It's actually working perfectly fine now. The same happened in the upgrade to the second dev beta.

Did they tweak the folder icons?
Click to expand...

I wish. Now that we're on DP3 and they've been completely untouched, I'm having doubts that they will tweak them. I know that folks on Deviantart will quickly step in with a much better icon set, but it's still kind of surprising that Apple chose this original design when almost everybody unanimously says they are too bright and distracting.
 
Seeing as I do a lot of connecting to various university machines via SSH with the shell, would anyone mind explaining what's different in the new shell? Did they upgrade to a newer version of BASH? Did they tweak the UI? Did they make TSCH standard instead of Bash (I hope not)?
 
The big blue arrows on the pop down menus is really annoying me. It's so inconsistent, every other button stays colorless and then only turns blue when clicked. When the window isn't active and the arrows are white it looks so much better and less jarring.
