When you add a default button to a window the text colour of the caption is white on the default blue background. However if you change the text it turns black, which I find difficult to read on the blue background.
Is there a way of forcing it to white … it’s fine.
This is on macOS and not dark mode.

Code? Example? Screenshots? Xojo version? macOS version? Intel or AS?
Screen shot 1 I added a default button. The text is white.
In screenshot 2 I gave it a name and changed the text from Ok (the default) to New.
I’m using Xojo 2020 2.1 and macOS Catalina 10.15.7. It’s an Intel based iMac.
It could be a bug in the IDE, do you see it at runtime? Have you switched back and forth between dark mode preview? Sometimes this can unstuck things.
Apparently, this is a default (Xojo 2015r1) here, IN THE IDE ONLY.
At run time, the text is white.
But, this is something I noticed too some days ago. Was it different some weeks ago ?

It shows up correctly (in white) at run time. Don’t use dark mode.
It could be a recent thing; I changed the highlight colour in the Finder preferences a few weeks ago. That just looked wrong and it seemed the problem had sorted itself out so I changed Finder back to the default only to come across this IDE issue … so yes, it does look like an IDE only issue.

The last button on the tiny buttons toolbar toggles between Dark Mode and Light Mode preview and that can sometimes unstuck the drawing. I wasn’t referring to whether or not you use dark mode.
You learn something new every day. Never noticed that before. When I press that to show dark mode the button text turns white. When I press the button again the text goes black.

This is a known bug in the IDE. I don’t have the Feedback Case handy, but the team is aware of it. Sometimes you just gotta double-click that Dark Mode button.
