Label style/color changed, how can I change it back?

Erica Lake

This morning Trello made me re-login and when I did all my labels showed up in a different style. They used to be solid colors with wording that said what the label was but now they show up with a dot next to the wording and the colors are lighter, almost pastel instead of the bright colors they used to be. Attached is a picture of what the labels look like now.

Does anyone know how to get the labels changed back? I've tried looking in settings but can't find anything.

@Erica Lake welcome to the community! it sounds like there are some changes going on with labels. A few rumors, but i don't know anything for sure. You're not the only one experiencing this, but not everyone is. I'll post back on here if/when I get a better answer of what's going on!

Exactly, these change affected all my boards but not my friends account. Also there are no settings regarding labels style. If you have any news, please let us know.

I am experiencing this change also. It is TERRIBLE. Plz halp!

I'm experiencing the same problem. It's hard to keep track of cards since the pastel colors are hard to read. Need this changed back to solid bold colors.

I'm managing several boards, and it does get overwhelming at times, I see what they did with the dots in some of my accounts, well you have a list that has several cards and some of them completed, some still being worked on and some are to-do it's kindda nice as it's a bit softer on the eyes, but I would very much like to enable these for some boards not all of them.

I'm guessing Trello will eventually allow us to choose, it's not a big deal, it would be nice if the actual dots are like the original color RGB, and the rest of the label is this lighter color.

Brittany Joiner

@Alexander Magdy that is how it looks on my screen - the dot is the original color and label is lighter. does it look different on yours?

Alexander Magdy

I think the original color was a bit sharper, maybe it’s an optical illusion, but this dot can get more vivid and noticeable.

I think the new dot is slightly lighter than the original color pallet.

Brittany Joiner

Gotcha, thanks @Alexander Magdy for the feedback!

I agree with everyone else. I have a lot of cards, and the light pastel labels blend into the card making the tasks I had certain colours (like red) no longer stand out, it also makes it hard to use these labels for organisational purposes.

Sarah Salenger

I would also like to add that the addition of the dot adds visual noise to what was previously a fairly clean label. It makes it harder to read at a glance as the contrast between the text and the background color is lower, the text is smaller/less bold, and there is now another shape drawing my eye but not conveying any meaningful information.

@Brittany Joiner Hello Brittany,

Do we have an update on the issue?

Brittany Joiner

@Panagiotis i just posted this article - explains why the labels had to change because of the exciting addition of more colors for labels! https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/Trello-dreams-coming-true-today-more-label-colors-available/ba-p/2132664#U2133570

PA_Dion

Yes, agree with many here... it's visually more difficult to read at a glance, is there a toggle to change them back at least or if not will there be?

PA_Dion

Yes but even the darkest of the new colors is lighter than the original set

How about giving the users a (1) A Color Picker (Ex #000000) (2) Text Picker (Ex#FFFFFF) then call it good...everyone is happy.

Vanessa Barnes

Agreed!

Good day,

My boards' labels finally updated to the pastel colors just yesterday, it's so hard to look as since the card is white. Then the members' went back to the bold color labels. Is this just a coincidence and is there a way now to go back to the bold colors in my access? (board owner). Wondering if my update triggered theirs to go back.

Monica Leonor Andal

I hope they launch an option in the setting where we can set it back to the original bold colors
