panel icon light/dark UI mixup - Rick Johnson - 09-03-2020

I have several plugins, some with more than one panel, that are all defined similar to the panel sample project, but all panels display only the dark UI icon. Here's my code:

Code:
this->__docPanel = hdi::core::Panel(

 "AxoTools Projection", // Panel title

this->docPanelSize, // Panel size

false, // is width resizeable

false, // is height resizeable

hdi::core::ImageIDs( AT_pnlIcon_PNGI_RSRC_ID,

AT_pnlIcon_3TO2X_PNGI_RSRC_ID,

AT_pnlIcon_2X_PNGI_RSRC_ID,

AT_pnlIcon_DARK_PNGI_RSRC_ID,

AT_pnlIcon_DARK_3TO2X_PNGI_RSRC_ID,

AT_pnlIcon_DARK_2X_PNGI_RSRC_ID)

);

IDToFile.txt

Code:
png pnlIcon.png

png   pnlIcon@2x.png

png pnlIcon@3to2x.png

png   pnlIconDark.png

png pnlIconDark@2x.png

png pnlIconDark@3to2x.png

Tool icons and other images all respond to light or dark UI as expected. Given all plugins display only dark UI icons for panels, I wonder if it' a bug. Then again, CADtools' panel icons are correct, so maybe there are rules for resource ID numbers besides >5,000.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Can you provide some sample code that would reproduce this in the hdi_core panel sample? Also, which version of Illustrator? Mac or Windows?

I'm sorry this took so long. I've attached the Panel sample modified with some of my icons, which display when the panel is collapsed.

Only Xcode project is included, with AI 25 schemes. Go to Window > PanelSample > Show icon test panel. Collapse panel to icon. In AI preferences, change the UI between light and dark. Note that only dark icons appear. If you specify only light icon IDs when defining the panel, then only light icons appear.

This doesn't happen in CS6 (icons there change correctly for light and dark UI), but is a problem for all later versions under both Mac and Windows. I have a 27" iMac (Retina display) and run Windows 10 under Parallels.

I sure hope this helps. -- Rick
