When editing text the box background changes colors. How do I choose color
so I still see the text?
 
Hi Steve,
Thanks for the reply. That works for text that is highlighted. When the
text is not highlighted I haven't been able to adjust the background contrast
compared to the text. I tried adjusting few of the different scheme colors
with no luck.

Any other ideas?

What are the scheme colors set to, is the background set to the background scheme
color, and what's the text color?

That might help visualize what's going on.

Thanks...
 
The back ground is grey/white gradient and the text is black. When I edit a
text field and there is no text highlighted the background turns a dark blue
and the text stays black.
Thanks

So it's not set to the scheme background color?
and the text is black.

A scheme color or not?

To determine this, select the text, click the down-arrow next to the "A" button on the
drawing toolbar. "Automatic" or one of the color chips in the first row may appear to
be "depressed" or highlighted. If so, which? What does the tooltip say when you
hover the mouse over the chip?

And again, what are the scheme colors?
 
Ahhh when I set it to automatic it fixes the background. Thanks, that got me
in the right direction.
