issue type is blank and search issue autocomplete invisible in light mode; after 10.3.2 upgrade

[Martin E]

Has anyone encountered this issue where the text is not visible in Jira's light mode? The solution is to switch to dark mode, where the text becomes visible.

However, I prefer using light mode.

This problem occurs in two places:

1. Project settings – Issue types
2. Autocomplete in the issue navigator.

Hello @Martin E

From my limited experience, visual glitches like invisible text in light mode often stem from UI updates or browser compatibility issues.

Switching to a different browser or clearing the cache can sometimes resolve the problem. If the issue persists, using dark mode as a temporary solution might help until a fix is released.

I suggest reporting the issue to Atlassian support to ensure it’s addressed promptly at https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/.

The solution was Look and Feel. Drop-down menu item - text color Colour was #ffffff (white) which is not the default colour. Changing the mode does not adjust these colours, which I consider a shame. 

So I used a different colour which works for both the dark and light modes.

Perhaps in new versions one can choose a colour schemes depending on the mode. 

It was that simple  :-)  (thanks for Atlassian Support for helping me out here)
