Input box text is unreadable with a bright accent color

[Stakker]

See image :-)

Elsewhere in Obsidian, all the text on the accent color background (like buttons) is black. That would be one possibility, but I also think the accent color is not the right choice for the input box, because it's used for buttons and similar UI elements.

How about the input box would simply be the same color as the background of your text? I think this would be the most logical and also nicest looking option :-) (Maybe you could choose to use the accent color for the text to make it stand out from "regular text".)

Otherwise this looks like a cool plugin, but it's just unusable for me now :-) (I'm currently using Copilot, but I don't like its default visual settings that can't be changed.)

Been a bit busy but I will keep this in mind for the next release.

I can see how this is problematic.

v1.8.8

I added Chatbox Background Color and Chatbox Border Color colorpicker.

Please let me know if adjusting the chatbox appearance will make it more readable.

Thanks

Oh yeah, much better! Now I can actually use it :-)

A minor cosmetic thing is that the "Start typing…" text is now full bright white on a dark background. (There is no #FFFFFF in the default or Minimal theme, they use grays.) I would personally prefer it to be dark gray so it would look more like a subtle hint and not stand out so bright. Of course how it looks also depends on your background color setting, and it's a minor niggle anyway :-)

Thanks for the quick fix, I appreciate it! 🙏
