PDF text selection color in Zotero 7

Hi! I noticed that the blue color of the text selection highlighter (not the annotator) in PDFs in Zotero 7 has become darker/more saturated; this makes it hard for me to read the text being selected. The highlighting color for text on webpage snapshots is the standard light blue, which is much easier to read. Is there any way to adjust this? Thank you!

  • I can't agree more!

    The change in the text selection highlighter color in Zotero 7 has made it harder for me to read selected text as well. The darker, more saturated blue used in PDFs is particularly straining on the eyes compared to the light blue used for webpage snapshots, which is much more readable. Having the option to adjust or customize the highlighting color would be incredibly helpful for users who prefer a softer tone for better readability.

    It would be great to see this feature considered in a future update! Thanks for bringing this up!
