How to get the light look for widgets

As of macOS 10.12, all default widget apperances are light. I couldn't find a setting in Xcode 8 to make my existing widget to adopt the light apperance.

Within your widget's Info.plist, in the 

NSExtensionAttributes
dictionary, try setting 
NSExtensionPointVersion
to the string 
2.0
. That should opt the widget in to the new look.

😟Unfortunately, it doesn't work when i set NSExtensionPointVersion under NSExtension dictionary. Do i need to do other things in my code?

@IBourne Have you tried putting it under the NSExtensionAttributes dictionary?
ps: sorry for being four years late.
