Change button text colour
- 2 years agoHi there!Good news! You can now use theme color contrast to make sure that text or icons that appear on top of a theme color meet contrast guidelines automatically.To use this new feature, simply go to the Theme tab, select Colors and choose one of the following options:
- Auto: Turns text and meaningful graphics to black or white automatically depending on your accent color to meet the minimum accessibility contrast requirements.
- Dark: Turns text and meaningful graphics to black.
- Light: Turns text and meaningful graphics to white.
Once you’ve given it a try, we’d love to hear what you think!
Has this been updated? I don't see a way to change the color of button text but this is something that would be very helpful for accessibility.
Buttons in Rise with white text fail the WCAG color contrast at AA and AAA for normal and large text when it is white text on bright and even some dark colors.
I have a whole theme designed and the color with black print that I am using passes all of the WCAG contrast standards but white text on the same color fails all of them. See the images attached, they are from the WebAIM Contrast Checker.
Guess I should have started by checking the buttons. If I could change the button text to black it would pass and save me time that I now have to use to rework my design with a color that will pass.
Are there any other ways to make this work?

Agreed! A huge issue for making an accessible course.
