Hello, I want to update kibana style by updating css file. I updated before (v 7.0.1) by updating common.style.css file. But I am using now 7.9.2 and there is not common.style.css file in this version. Which css file should I update? Please help. Thank you. ---

A plugin with a custom CSS file would be the best route but if you are looking for a quick fix (that will overwrite when you update again) you can use the `core.dark.css` or `core.light.css` depending if you are using light/dark mode. ![Screen Shot 2020-10-15 at 10.50.16 AM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/d/ed149d19ebca0c990e5e777777644697980bc1ff.png) ---
