Possibility of having the correct aspect for default buttons

Hello everyone, I am creating an app for macOS but unfortunately I see that there are differences between the appearance of the default buttons of Mac and those created by LC. In particular the text of the blue button is not white like that of the system, and the font is not the one used by the system (best seen in the "Cancel" button).
Does anyone know if there is a way to make them equal?

And why, when the thing appears on Macintosh does the spelling of 'sure" change to "shure"?
Because those are NOT the same message windows from the same stack on 2 machines.

Noone said these are BOTH LC dialogs!

Sorry, no idea, but in LC >=8 the "native" look on a Mac (and Windows) has really improved...

Thank you Klaus, richmond62 sorry for the typo in the LC stack sample...
PS
I bet that macOS changed appearance after LC team has improved the "native look"...

If you want the buttons to use the Macintosh system font
then you should set the textFont of your stack to the Mac system font.
