Git commit 5203b0ddd59d0b1cf43a3470ea9956c85b592eca by Niccolò Venerandi. Committed on 14/10/2025 at 13:20. Pushed by niccolove into branch 'master'. Make Dashboard follow colorscheme Previously, all Dashboard colors were hardcoded. Instead, we now use the Complementary color set, and give the user an option to switch to the theme's Window default color set too.
