"Filename" turns white and cannot be changed

Since the last update I have the problem (on Macbook Pro) that when I click on "File name" the text can no longer be read and therefore the name can no longer be changed properly.

    So the text is there and changeable, but you can't see what you are doing? I see the text as black. Maybe you'll have to change the accent color in MacOS System Settings then.

     


    If that doesn't work either, then maybe the Lightroom preferences are corrupted. Reset them so Lightroom rebuilds them:

    Click on the small icon with a pen in the upper left corner of the metadata panel. Does that help?

    Hello Johan, thank you very much for your answer. Unfortunately, that doesn't help (Macbook Pro 2021). I'm in editing mode of the metadata panel. The file name is displayed. If I click in the window, it turns white with white writing.
