Would be nice if this workflow can change the used Alfred theme as well when switching to dark mode <-> light mode,

 

Can this be implemented or can I add this to workflow on my own?

 

Solved it, it’s just on additional line at the end of your script. Just put in your preferred dark and light theme.

 

Exchange this on „lightmode“ -Script 

tell application "System Events"
	tell appearance preferences
		set dark mode to false
	end tell
end tell

tell application "Alfred 3" to set theme "Alfred macOS"

Exchange this on „darkmode“ -Script 

tell application "System Events"
	tell appearance preferences
			set dark mode to true
	end tell
end tell

tell application "Alfred 3" to set theme "Alfred macOS Dark"

 

Exchange this on „togglemode“ -Script

tell application "System Events"
	tell appearance preferences
 		set dark mode to not dark mode
	end tell
end tell

tell application "Alfred 3" to set theme "Alfred macOS"

Long ago, I wrote a script to automatically change Alfred's theme at sunrise and sunset.

 

Perhaps someone might be interested in editing the AppleScript to also change Mojave's theme?

 

Or does Mojave take care of that itself?

Mojave doesn’t take care for this, but there is a small app called NightOwl which uses also Sunset/Sunrise

Thanks. I’ve been using F.lux, as it also changes the screen colour to make it easier to sleep or something. Makes it yellow at night, basically.

@Dasblatz  including the Alfred theme switch.   The workflow is a separate install as I prefer using a custom Aflred theme

 

I didn't include the toggle as it was only changing the Alfred theme to light.
