Customizing User Interface
MJS Diagram Viewer and Editor are web components meaning that among other things their shadow DOMs are isolated from the styles of the application containing them. This avoids styling conflicts and side effects, but it also means that you don't get full access to customization of MJS Diagram UI.
Having said that, MJS Diagram components expose a way to adjust colors and some other stylings via CSS variables (also known as custom properties). You can set MJS Diagram specific variables in your CSS to adjust how the components look.
Additionally, future versions of MJS Diagram will expose various parts for further customization via the CSS ::part
pseudo-element.
