Hi Experts,

I'm investigating a Dark Mode issue in ServiceNow and would appreciate guidance on where this rendering difference may be coming from.

Issue

In PROD, Activity Stream entries (Work Notes and Additional Comments) are difficult to read because the text appears very light/white on a light background.

The same text display correctly in DEV.

This issue is also observed in some Single Score widgets, which makes me suspect a theme/UI rendering issue .

Thanks

Hi @AyushS043740019

Compare this both properties, dev and prod, compare if the values are the same. They’re responsible to control it. 

glide.ui.activity_stream.style.comments

glide.ui.activity_stream.style.work_notes
