The default blue highlight color does not change with system preference changes on Mac. Is there a way to change it within LucidChart account? I find the faint blue color is completely lost on certain background colors.

Example: Text is highlighted but does not show up when against a blue background:
Same selection with different fill color:

This continues to complicate editing in LucidChart. Is there a way to change the text highlight color so it shows up on any background color?

Hello there

Thanks for posting on the Lucidchart Community! Unfortunately it is not possible to change the text highlight color.

However, I think this is a great idea! Thanks for your feature request and I apologize for any inconvenience this causes you.

The highlight contrast is low not even to 3:0 to the minimum of contrast request for WCAG.  

Agree with Network G made editing very cumbersome. Please consider the festure inprovment ASAP. Thank you for this great tool!
