That was also my estimation. I decided to go with native code:
#ifdef Q_OS_MACOS QColor qt_mac_toQColor(const NSColor *color) const { QColor qtColor; NSString *colorSpace = [color colorSpaceName]; if (colorSpace == NSDeviceCMYKColorSpace) { CGFloat cyan, magenta, yellow, black, alpha; [color getCyan:&cyan magenta:&magenta yellow:&yellow black:&black alpha:&alpha]; qtColor.setCmykF(cyan, magenta, yellow, black, alpha); } else { NSColor *tmpColor; tmpColor = [color colorUsingColorSpaceName:NSDeviceRGBColorSpace]; CGFloat red, green, blue, alpha; [tmpColor getRed:&red green:&green blue:&blue alpha:&alpha]; qtColor.setRgbF(red, green, blue, alpha); } return qtColor; } #endif QColor appleControlAccentColor() const { if (@available(macOS 10.14, *)) { // macOS 10.14 or later code path return qt_mac_toQColor([NSColor controlAccentColor]); } else { return QApplication::palette().color(QPalette::Active, QPalette::ButtonText); } } > On Jan 30, 2019, at 2:53 AM, Nils Jeisecke <nils.jeise...@saltation.com> > wrote: > > Hi, > > Am 30.01.2019 um 02:27 hat Patrick Stinson geschrieben: >> Hello! >> >> I am trying to figure out how to get the following color for macOS >> (see screenshot) which is called “Accent Color" in the General section >> of System Preferences. > > I'm afraid there's only the "highlight" color available (which is derived > from the accent color by default but can be changed).
