This is the evildoer: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/e/1eafda9e3c1d7ecbf6f7b9ce40c2618f99ff804b.png)  
should kinda be defaulted by ignition, as the color assigned there serves no purpose, (also what a weird class name)

but can be fixed: change this into theme.css

```auto
.ia_dropdown __valuePill__ value {
color: unset;
}

```

or inject it into a styleclass

```auto
}.ia_dropdown __valuePill__ value {
color: unset;
}{

```

for the dropdown shape you can do the same for

```auto
.ia_dropdown__expandIcon {
 fill: unset;
}

```
