Welcome Lucabo69!
What du you mean with "directly on the dashboard"? Do you know this thread:

> I was kindly asked for help on dashboard styling but that help turned out for me to customize almost all default components. As it was "You'll help me - I'll help you" job, we agreed that it will be shared also to community. Base theme: Node-RED theme-everywhere style: dark sizes: 48, 6, 8, 8 (all square) base color: rgb(5 62 168) [{"id":"78abef.11f5941","type":"tab","label":"Flow 1","disabled":false,"info":""},{"id":"771f257f.55355c","type":"ui\_form","z":"78abef.11f5941","name"…

I'd call that "Mission Impossible" but that would be wrong because of it can be done.
The way I see it would be possible is that you should first override almost everything theme colors related to get access to the properties. Then feed new color to the ui\_template where you can override related values for each element where theme based colors affect.
Kind of a lot of work....
