Copy the content of the original Css file like C:\MDict\css\mydict.css and modify it to fit your needs.

If you would like to create a dark theme Css file, you can copy the original Css file and modify it to create a new Css file like C:\MDict\css\mydict_dark.css.

In plugin setting panel, these css files should use the relative path to the folder of the dictionary file.

For example, if your dictionary file is C:\MDict\mydict.mdx and the css files are C:\MDict\css\mydict.css and C:\MDict\css\mydict_dark.css, and then you should set the light css to css\mydict.css and dark css to css\mydict_dark.css in the settings.
