It's possible to customize the note style by editing "_user_style.css" inside the media folder. To find out where your media folder is, please refer to the Anki documentation.
If a value has already been set inside the default "_style.css", you can overwrite it by using the !important flag.
If you want to remove a value, you can also use the unset keyword.
/* _user_style.css example */
.nightMode, .night-mode, .night_mode {
background-color: #1e1e2e !important; /* overwrite value */
}
.nightMode code {
filter: unset !important; /* remove value */
}
/* !important is not necessary here since ".field" is not set in "_style.css" */
.field {
display: inline-block;
text-align: left;
}The markdown preview will automatically follow all user style modifications.
