RE: Font Color and background color in Text Box

Anyone know if there is there a way to change the font colour via code as a work-around ?

Kill me, it was so obvious for me that it should exist that I have spent 10mn searching where was the option before coming here... 23 fonts and no color...

I feel its almost a year with this problem is existing. Surely in good faith we would appreciate you updating us on the progress of issues we have raised. Being unable to change text box font colours is really sad (and Im using the latest update of Bi)

RE: Font Color and background color in Text Box

Urgh - this is horrible - just discovered I can't edit the font colour in a Card that's been pushed through to Dashboard. It's Black on White regardless.

Horrible
