The dark mode colors that are currently part of LyX 2.4 are hard coded.
You can see them here:
https://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyxgit/src/Color.cpp
There you will find a comment
// ColorCode, gui, latex, x11hexname, x11darkhexname, lyx
So, for example,
{ Color_footlabel, N_("footnote label"), "footlabel", "#00aaff", blue,
"footlabel" }
means that the color "footlabel" will be set to "blue" in dark mode. So,
without dark mode support, this corresponds to the following line in the
Preferences file:
\set_color "footlabel" "blue" "blue"
(Setting the light mode color to the same color as the dark mode color.)
In this way you should be able use the same colors in the work area (!)
that LyX uses where it supports dark mode.
Granted, it is a bit cumbersome to transfer all the colors.
It might be a good idea to add a button to the color dialog for manually
switching to dark mode/light mode colors.
Hope that helps!

I have filed an bug at https://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/12652. If none of
the developers complains, I might even create a patch at some point.

Dear all,
As you might know, LyX features a theorem type "Acknowledgment" via the

The issue appeared on the developers list that none of us is actually
sure about the function of this theorem type. This is a problem with
regard to translation into other languages, as "acknowledgment" can
mean different things, among them
(a) expressing gratefulness (credits, as in the "Acknowledgment"
section of books or articles),
(b) expressing respect ("In acknowledgment of his special merits he was
appointed as honorary conductor of the orchestra"),
(c) the act or fact of accepting the truth or recognizing the existence
of something ("acknowledgment of a mistake"),
(d) a confirmation ("I have received no acknowledgment")
Depending on the meaning, the term needs to be translated differently
to some languages. Currently, it is translated in the same way than the
Acknowledgment sections in articles (meaning [a]), and we have serious
doubts whether this is appropriate.
If you use or are familiar with the Acknowledgment theorem type: what
are its general purposes, or how do you use it?
Thanks,
My reading of amsthdoc.pdf, Section 4.1, is that Acknowledgment in the
context of theorem styles is to be understood in sense (a). In
amsthdoc.pdf it is grouped with things like Remark, Notation,
Conclusion -- a typesetting style rather than a special kind of
mathematical object.
I'm not sure about that. In my field anyway, Remark is used for
comments, more or less. Sometimes it would be an explanation of a
result, or of why one is proceeding a certain way. Notation would be
used for explanations of notation. I'm less sure about Conclusion,
though I would guess it was used for something like a remark that summed
up the results of a certain line of investigation.
Still, thinking about this further, I agree with you that Acknowledgment
would probably mean (a). I can imagine something like:
Acknowledgment 3.2: Theorem 3.1 is 'folklore'. The proof given here is
based upon an idea suggested to me by NN.
