custom_config not working

[GarrickLin]

Describe the error

• I created a custom_config.yml in the same folder, and filled in some params (changed background color)
• run manimgl animation.py HelloLaTeX

Code and Error

custom_config.yml

break_into_partial_movies: false
camera_resolutions:
  4k: 3840x2160
  default_resolution: high
  high: 1920x1080
  low: 854x480
  medium: 1280x720
directories:
  mirror_module_path: false
fps: 30
full_screen: false
style:
  background_color: "#1e4b31"
  font: Consolas
  tex_template: default
universal_import_line: from manimlib import *
window_monitor: 0
window_position: UR
tex:
  text_to_replace: [tex_expression]
  executable: xelatex -no-pdf
  template_file: ctex_template.tex
  intermediate_filetype: xdv

animation.py

from manimlib import *


class HelloLaTeX(Scene):
    def construct(self):
        self.ss = r"$ax^2+bx+c$"
        tex = TexText(self.ss, font_size=144)
        self.add(tex)

The background color has not changed(still black), and it did not support Chinese.

I logged the intermediate latex command like:

latex -interaction=batchmode -halt-on-error -output-directory="/var/folders/7y/1j0kg1lj6q94pm_zzzjvxtjh0000gn/T/Tex" "/var/folders/7y/1j0kg1lj6q94pm_zzzjvxtjh0000gn/T/Tex/e9f7d5d816f0514a.tex"

which did not invoke xelatex -no-pdf as config file required.

I'm having similar difficulties.

./test.py:

from manimlib import InteractiveScene, BLUE, RED, Text, FadeIn

class Test(InteractiveScene):
    def construct(self):
        print (self.camera.background_rgba)
        
        title = Text("Hello, world!", color=BLUE, t2c={"world": RED})
        self.play(FadeIn(title))
        self.wait()

with ./custom_config.yml:

style:
  background_color: "#ff00ff"
  font: "Comic Sans MS"

(Don't worry, I'm using Comic Sans ironically.)

manimgl test.py:

Here, I note a few things:

• The background color is black rather than the expected magenta.
• The background color in custom_config.yml has been loaded and set in the scene's camera object (see highlighted text in the screenshot), but it's still black.
• The font specified only in custom_config.yml has been picked up and used.
  This demonstrates the custom config is loading.

Additionally, but possibly unrelated:

• "Hello, " is white, not blue as intended.
• "world" is red, as intended, using t2c

This is within a venv running Python 3.12 with a fresh install of Manim 1.7.1, all on a Mac M4 on Sequoia 15.1.1.
