I tried to change the color of the MAKI icons by trying to specify it inside marker dict but it does not work. However, changing the style of mapbox in the layout changes the color of the icons. So it should be possible to specify the color in the marker too (without changing the style). I could not find any information about this in the documentation.
Many thanks in advance.
