Turn off color invert when selecting text color?

[mmowrer]

Not even sure if this is possible, but is there a way to turn off color invert when selecting text and changing the color? It would make it easier to see which colors work best over the background.

Hi @mmowrer there is no way to turn this off. It's a native feature. You could post this in the Ideas tab as an option/enhancement.

When the type is selected you can press Cmd+ H (mac) or Ctrl+H (windows) to hide the overlay (Extras).

Excellent, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

Tried this and it just hides the application on Mac

Egbert,

Try Control+Cmd+H
