Transcripts in dark mode not visible
I musst say although not perfect transcripts is an amassing feature, specially since oyu have the Recordings & Transcripts tab in the meeting details panel as part of the Meeting summary.
now is an user have the Dark mode in teams, the transcripts are not visibel. only after we highlighted content we realized that the text is there, is simply dark as well therefore not readable.
if you jump to the Default Theme, then you can read. is this a known bug ? the text of the transcrips should be white for users who use the Dark Theme in Teams isnt it ?
The version of teams i am looking at this bug is -> Microsoft Teams Version 1.4.00.9773 (64-bit). It was last updated on 12/04/2021.

This is still an issue with version 1.5.00.6181 with my mac running Monterey, and it is getting annoying
Also this is an issue with regular chat messages when someone copies/pastes it and sends it to me or a group I am in

This still seems to be an issue in Teams "Chat" Version 1.5.00.5967 (64-bit) but only in Windows from what I can see - look at screenshot below, on Mac's it seems to be a lot better and easier to read. I've reverted back to standard mode on Windows but can leave Dark Mode on, on the Mac - be nice to get a resolution for this as the standard mode sorted on Windows - it really is painful on the eyes in Standard mode. - RikkyCitraBrass ContributorI am curious. I do not have this issue yet so far. Is it the problem with Teams preview build or Windows? Does this problem dissapear when you disable public preview but still using the public preview build (so far the latest is 1.5.00.7765)? Did anyone try to use standard build (https://statics.teams.cdn.office.net/production-windows-x64/1.5.00.5967/Teams_windows_x64.exe) and the problem dissappear? Anyone try to change Windows theme to see if this problem still occur?
Hope this problem solved for many of you soon.- FS_AUSCopper Contributor

I'm using my organistations build which is I assume standard, it's a Teams issue not Windows.
Teams / About = You have Microsoft Teams Version 1.5.00.7765 (64-bit). It was last updated on 21/03/2022.
In Teams go to Settings (3 dots) / General / Change Theme to Dark.
Open Excel, on three or 4 seperate rows in the same column type-
testtest
test
copy the cells and paste (ctrl+v) in a chat to someone, the text for me is black/dark grey on black background, you can just make it out, if the reciever has dark mode enabled they will see the same.
Some forums suggest using ctrl+alt+v to remove formatting but that doesn't paste anything for me.- RikkyCitraBrass Contributor
Have tested your way and it appears the same to me too. 1.5.00.7765 is the latest preview build I know so far, haven't tested in latest 1.5.00.5967 standard build, may be will just be the same.
For copy paste case, the only work around now may be just select all text (ctrl+A) then clear the formatting or ctrl+shift+V to paste as plain text.
But for receiving chat, I don't have any idea for the trick yet.
Hope this help a bit.
- FS_AUSCopper ContributorStill an issue 23/3/22 version 1.5.00.7765 (64-bit)
@microsoftTeams are you listening, come on fix this, it's embarassing for you, I'm constantly battling with Teams, it's supposed to be a collaboration tool to help me in my work not something I have to fight with. - Davis_ThomasCopper ContributorDoes anyone know is it fixed for any latest Teams versions?
- Alphons68Copper ContributorIt has not. My last teams update is from 02/28/2022 v.1.5.00.4689 (64 bit)
- philbert68Copper ContributorWas there ever a solution to this? This thread hasn't been touched in 6 months. Here is my Teams version. You have Microsoft Teams Version 1.5.00.2164 (64-bit). It was last updated on 2/12/2022.

Still a thing in version 1.4.00.29469. Just got a chat with this issue a few minutes ago. I could just barely see the text in dark mode (my default). Looks totally fine in light mode.
- DanielHerreraBrass ContributorRight same experience here, No long-term fix yet 🤷:male_sign:
- Alphons68Copper Contributor
I have a similar issue, but not with transcripts just general chat text.
When text is copied from other (usually Microsoft related) sources, it isn't always visible when I'm in dark mode. If it switch to light mode, the text displays.As you can see, the first part of the sentence displays in dark mode but not the second part. No issue in light mode.
I'm using MS Teams 1.4.00.29469 (64-bit)
I also just tried the browser version (in MS Edge) and the same thing happens.

Alphons68 I get the same definitely in public preview, plus sometimes my arrow keys stop working. Plus SharePoint tabs prompt for login, but its is public preview.
What I do with text like this is highlight it and click on the font colour and hit automatic fixes it. I know not ideal but that's my quick fix for that
