Unable to see selected text on blue background -- can I change the select/highlight color in XD?

I've been working on a design with a blue accent color. When editing text, it is nearly impossible to see which text I am selecting to edit. Is there a setting to change the text-selection/highlight color? Or is there some other workaround?

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out. In addition to what Kenneth suggested, if you have Windows Operating System, you can refer to this article to change the settings for highlighted color system-wide: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-start-win_general/how-to-change-the-highlight-color-properly/b720d88a-8ff6-4ca3-8815-c66e2d9f2c29

 

In Adobe XD, I am afraid, as of now this option is not available, however we have received similar request on Adobe XD UserVoice, please

On Mac you can change the highlight colour: System Preference > General > Highlight color

(this is a system-wide setting so it will affect everything, not just XD)
