When I view the preview, it's still light. (File Panels > Show preview).
That's a bit annoying when using a dark theme. Optimal for me would be dark with syntax coloring.

Re: Dark themed preview
Hm, that's strange, I thought it was fixed in v1.2.1.
Could you provide any screenshot to clarify?

I'm going to purchase a license btw, I've tried a lot of file managers recently and this is my favourite so far. Especially since your answer seems to address one of my few reservations

Re: Dark themed preview
I think it works like this: if you preview something like an icon, preview's the background in NC will be dark.
If it's a text file, e.g. a source file, the coloring (background, syntax highlighting etc.) is done by mac OS's Quick Look. There are a lot of QL plugins that change the colors, syntax highlighting etc. My guess is you'd have to change it in QL which would be system wide. But maybe I'm wrong
Re: Dark themed preview
This is news to me actually, can't believe I didn't know about quick look plug-ins.
I had a look for some and found a syntax highlighter which did indeed work in NC as well, so it seems you're right. Only found one with light colors, but a more in-depth search might solve that problem.

Re: Dark themed preview
I'm using qlcolorcode (https://code.google.com/archive/p/qlcolorcode/). The configuration is done via terminal commands (see README). For example, the command to use a theme with dark background is
Code: Select all
defaults write org.n8gray.QLColorCode hlTheme bipolar
Re: Dark themed preview
Brilliant, I got it to work now. Cheers for the help, although I guess in the end it turned to have nothing to do with NC
