Hi,

Actually, I am not sure that is the case. 

See the attached screen capture of the default R.app (which I do not use) when the desktop is set to dark mode, which I also do not use.

When in light mode, those hints in the lower left hand corner are black, and they switch to white in dark mode, making them almost impossible to see.

For Andrew, if this is correct, and you are not referring to RStudio per Jeff, you should post this to r-sig-mac:

Otherwise, if it is RStudio, they have their own support here:
