The Hints pane is actually an embedded browser component and so is not theme aware, as it is displaying HTML content. So won't be able to change this.

So won't be able to change this.

Having said that, I have made some experiments of injecting some additional CSS values into the HTML via JavaScript when loading the hint HTML text to give a dark background and light text. So it may be possible - with the caveat that the Archi Preference "Enable JavaScript in Hints" has to be enabled and there is a slight flicker when rendering the HTML (white background changing to dark).

I've implemented this now. As I said above, the Archi Preference "Enable JavaScript in Hints" has to be enabled and there is a slight flicker when rendering the HTML (white background changing to dark).
