How can I change the text colour in the interactive text box?

Hello Adobe Community, 
I've created an interactive text box, fillable once exported as PDF. I've set the font, font weight and font size in the Buttons and Forms tab but I don't see any advanced options for font colour nor paragraph alignment. I've inserted text in the interactive text box to the desired colour (dark blue) and the paragraph alignment to center but when I export it the text defaults to black and paragraph aligned to the left. HELP! Is it possible to set those preferences prior to exporting? 

Thank you in advance!

Yep, ID doesn't have all the features of PDF-forms things. Sad, but true.

Remember, never say you can't do something in InDesign, it's always just a question of finding the right workaround to get the job done. © David Blatner
