Environment

  • Python version: 3.7.3
  • NetBox version: 2.6.2

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any form with a color picker (e.g 'Add a new device role')
  2. Select black as color

Expected Behavior

Font color matches the .color-selection-* definition so it stays readable.

Observed Behavior

The default font color of the select2 container is used, which is not really readable with a dark background color.

@lampwins commented on GitHub (Aug 29, 2019):

We have a unity function for choosing the correct foreground color, so we just need to render the full list in the template and do the mapping.
