Hello there,

I am making an app that displays information through a list viewer. My app currently has a dark background but the list viewer’s text is currently set to a grayish color. Does anybody know how to change the color of this? (See screenshot below)

Hi @ianphaas

In the Advanced properties of the ListViewer you can change the `background color` of the list viewer, but at the moment there’s no property that would allow you to change the text colour.

Is there any way you can go with a lighter background for now?

@domhnallohanlon Thanks for the advice, I think I may just have to change the background color.
