Dark Mode Text Color Hard to Read (Vault Basic)

Hi, I have Vault Basic and when the dark mode theme is used it is very hard to read any items that are checked out. The text is a dark blue which contrast poorly with the dark background. See screen shot below.

 

Is there way to change the color of checked out files? I am surprised this has not come up in testing or in this forum before (I tried searching online already). I am on Vault Basic. Thanks!

I think what you are asking for is similar to this request. 

Solved: Unable to control font color since dark mode was introduced - Autodesk Community - Vault

 

While the colors could be configured in the configuration file, the settings don't apply to the themes.

Thanks, this worked!

 

That being said, is there any plan to fix this for default settings? Requiring users to edit config files, which requires local Admin privileges, so that text can be legible is hardly a clean solution... I would consider it more of a work around...

 

Needing admin privileges to fix this makes the dark theme inaccessible for a large percent of users. All the effort to add dark mode to Vault is wasted if for such a minor detail.

I agree, this is more of a workaround. I don't think we addressed the default settings yet, but I will see what we can do. 

Can you post this request to our Ideas board?
