change highlight color (in dark mode)

[roblreid]

Is there any way to change the highlight color? In dark mode it's horrible. I don't know if it is supposed to be tan, brown, or gold. It makes it difficult to read the text which remaind a turquoise color.But I really hate it. And whenever I swipe my cursor across a large event the entire thing is highlighted with it.

Hi @roblreid,

It's a span element background color style defined and applied in $SPLUNK_HOME/share/splunk/search_mrsparkle/exposed/build/pages/dark/search.js applied when the event data is rendered as HTML. I don't see a way to modify it without editing the code.

To my eyes, it's a golden brown color, like an extra dark golden rod. I don't have turquoise text in Splunk Enterprise 9.3, though. The text is white.

Your response prompted me to dig into the source. I think I tracked it down to the color code #7d600f. I tried to follow the instructions in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/devtools-guide-chromium/javascript/overrides. But it isn't having any effect. I am certain I have missed something. So close!
