Hi Aaron,

My money is on this being related to Mojave’s new theming stuff. If
you look very closely at the second screenshot you’ll notice there is
actually a black border round the frame.

Are you using the dark theme in macOS?

Perhaps try changing ns-appearance to see if it affects the colours.

FWIW, I think we tell macOS what our background and foreground colours
are, but the colour there doesn’t seem to match either so I wonder if
it’s automatically choosing a colour that will show up against the
background. I take it this border doesn’t exist on non‐emacs windows?
