TikZ previews affected by LyX UI style?
When I have a regular white background and black text UI (preferences | look and feel | default UI style), I can enter LyX code wrapped by preview and have the preview show up as intended. HOWEVER, if I switch to a dark mode style (in my case, Adwaita-Dark), the TikZ previews change color and are so light they barely show up on my monitor.
I attached my LyX file for reference: Here is what preview mode looks like when I have dark mode on: And this is what it looks like when the style is not dark mode: Ideally this shows me the diagram properly when I'm in dark mode. I don't care if it is white-on-black or black-on-white. How to make this work?
