Throughout macOS 11, windows adopt visual cues from iOS interfaces. The iCloud glyph remains teal, even when the other glyphs use orange. Because a fixed-colour sidebar glyph uses a specific colour to provide meaning, the system does not override its colour when users change the value of Accent colour preferences. The exception is a sidebar glyph that uses a fixed colour you specify. If users set the Accent colour preferences to a value other than multicolour, the system applies their chosen colour to the relevant items throughout your application, replacing your accent colour.
The system applies your accent colour when the current value in the user's General > Accent colour preferences is multicolour. In macOS 11, you can specify an accent colour to customize the appearance of your applicationʼs buttons, selection highlighting, and sidebar glyphs. For help designing a feature icon, download the production template included in the Apple Design Resources for macOS. A feature icon typically uses the macOS 11 rounded rectangle shape to contain a simple, unambiguous glyph, but it can also use custom shapes and colors. If your application opens or creates a large number of document types, you can also supply a custom centre image or background appearance to help people distinguish them.Ī feature icon can represent an item (or category of items), a technology, or a type of information in a table view or in the content sidebar of a preferences window. To compose a document icon, the system combines your application icon with the familiar folded-corner icon shape.
For example, the Preview, Xcode, and TextEdit icons continue to combine depictions of the physical objects that best convey the applicationʼs core purpose, while incorporating the new shape, perspective, and shadow. The new design does not preclude judicious expressiveness. In macOS 11, application icons combine a rounded-rectangle shape, a front-facing perspective, and a consistent drop shadow. In some cases, a symbol might not have the same size or alignment as the AppKit image it replaces, so check your layout. macOS 11 automatically maps AppKit shared images - such as Action, Unlocked, and Share - to specific symbols. MacOS 11 refreshes icon design throughout the system and also introduces multipurpose feature icons that can represent items or functions in sidebars and tables. It also adds support for familiar iOS features - such as SF Symbols and text styles. MacOS 11 Big Sur introduces many user interface changes that update the appearance of applications and make them more iOS-like.
