Hi,

I have changed the theme colors as described in https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/theme-colors.87716/#content

The theme colors work for actionbar and most elements.
However, the MsgBoxes have now white text on white background.

How could this be fixed?

This is my manifest (idential to
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/theme-colors.87716/#content)

B4X:
SetApplicationAttribute(android:theme, "@style/LightTheme")
CreateResource(values, colors.xml,
<resources>
    <color name="actionbar">#ff039be5</color>
   <color name="statusbar">#ff006db3</color>
   <color name="textColorPrimary">#ffffffff</color>
   <color name="navigationBar">#ff006db3</color>
</resources>
)
CreateResource(values-v20, theme.xml,
<resources>
    <style name="LightTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Material.Light">
        <item name="android:colorPrimary">@color/actionbar</item>
        <item name="android:colorPrimaryDark">@color/statusbar</item>
        <item name="android:textColorPrimary">@color/textColorPrimary</item>
        <item name="android:navigationBarColor">@color/navigationBar</item>
    </style>
</resources>
)
CreateResource(values-v14, theme.xml,
<resources>
    <style name="LightTheme" parent="@android:style/Theme.Holo.Light">
       <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/CustomActionBarStyle</item>
    </style>
   <style name="CustomActionBarStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar.Solid.Inverse">
       <item name="android:background">@color/actionbar</item>
   </style>
</resources>

Thanks a lot,
Johannes

Perhaps you can go to your visual designer, find [click] the box(es) that you have the problem with and change the text color in the properties window under Text Properties/Text Color.

If light theme then shoud be dark text color and reverse.

So, first of all, change <color name="textColorPrimary">#ffffffff</color> to, for example, <color name="textColorPrimary">#ff000000</color>

Second. I recommend to replace ACToolBarLight to ACToolBarDark (in layout and in code).
