Hey there folks!

I was making an app and the color we chose for our app was #EBFF00 as the accent color. Of course, the color’s way too bright so Glide warns us to switch the app’s color because it makes certain aspects, like buttons, illegible. Instead of toning down the color of the app, is there a way to make icons and labels on accented buttons #000000 (pitch black)? It boggles me as to why Glide doesn’t do this by default. We can’t tone down the color because it completely ruins the color and our pallete has no alternative tones.

Thanks,

You’d have to use CSS.

Try adding this to the Settings \> Appearance \> CSS box (and preview)

```auto
.filled {
color: #000 !important;
}

.filledAccent {
background-color: #000 !important;
}

```
