Altair Charts not adapting to dark background

I feel like this should just happen automatically, but if I try to go dark mode, my altair charts all get wonky. I expected I would get a dark background in my chart by default and my text would change to white.

I keep getting it in some notebooks, but simple examples won't reproduce it. Same environment... I am working on it!

Gotta ask about the column layouts, how did you do it 😅

@Haleshot something new we’re working on, feel free to test it out in the ws/2d-cells branch 😉 I’m with you, I swear I’ve noticed it before lol is it possible you’re using a browser dark mode extension instead of the marimo dark mode?

My system settings are dark mode, but I am explicitly going and clicking Marimo settings and switching from light to dark mode

you might need to restart your kernel

Cool! Have been wanting to explore the custom viewer (where we drop the panels/cell blocks onto the board ourselves) for a while now... this seems like a great alternative/feature.
