Hi,

You can easily modify the preview styles in the settings. Go to Preferences | Markdown and modify preview style table element then save it.

For example if you modify the table element to have default color #222 you can get following result:

I'll investigate this further and see for a fix, so that default preview style is always correctly shown (black background white text and vice verse), I'll also try improving preview default style to include proper colors across themes!

Thanks for the workaround, that worked.
It might be a good idea to adapt the default, so that new users don't run into the same issue.

No problem,

I think it was working in release before the new UI, so there must of been some change which affected this, I'll look into it and fix it as soon as I can.

I'll keep the issue open and post new findings once default behaviour is fixed!

Hi josvo,

There was issue when refactoring, the global style was not the same as in new shared code, so I adapted it here (https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote.next/pull/1004), after this is merged and released the default background colors for tables should be correct as they were before.

Please also note that, when this is released and you update the application, you should revert your workaround since it will clash with the correct colors. You can restore it to the default or just remove the added line (color).

Thank you for your patience!
