wxOSX dynamic background color broken (Issue #26301)
Ryan Ogurek
ryancog created an issue (wxWidgets/wxWidgets#26301)Description
The background color for windows on macOS does not dynamically update, and instead the color is static and has an (oddly) orange tint to it.
On macOS, the background color of windows (and groups/static boxes, etc.) is dynamic by default depending on the desktop wallpaper and the window's position on the desktop.
Moving to wxWidgets v3.3.2, this behavior is no longer working. Things were last working as expected for me on v3.3.0. I see there's been lots of changes to the wxOSX port over these versions (relating to both the unfortunate macOS 26 and some iOS work). Browsing through the commit history it seems 8ada351 and 5d41b24 are potential culprits.
Platform and version information
- wxWidgets version you use: 3.3.2
- wxWidgets port you use: wxOSX
- OS and its version: macOS Sequoia 15.7.1

csomor left a comment (wxWidgets/wxWidgets#26301)@ryancog in order to help me, could you please pick a sample app which shows these things the best (perhaps widgets ?) and a 3.3.2 and 3.3.0 screenshot, and give me a step-by-step instruction to arrive at the same window content. Then I'll try to preserve as much as possible without ruining the Tahoe fixes. Thanks

ryancog left a comment (wxWidgets/wxWidgets#26301)Here I have the widgets demo with 3.3.2 and 3.3.0
Here's 3.3.2:
It does not change based on position or size.
And for 3.3.0, I've taken a few screenshots around my desktop. My wallpaper is predominantly blue, so there's a blue tinge on the window (and then it changes just depending on the specific are of the wallpaper, it also changes based on the window size/area of the wallpaper occluded)
