06/24/2026, 1:13 PMc9 color in the complementary palette controls metric values within visualizations. If c9 was previously set to purple and has been reset or changed to black/dark, that would explain the shift. [Complementary Color]
2. Theme Reset or Modification GoodData themes override only what you specify — if a theme was modified, removed, or reset, the Headline value would fall back to the base theme default (black). [Create Custom Themes]
3. Priority Resolution The color applied to a Headline metric value follows this priority order:
1. Direct property override (e.g., kpiWidget → kpi → value color)
2. Complementary palette (c9)
3. Base theme default (black) [Theme Properties]
What to Check 1. Verify your theme JSON — confirm that c9 (or a direct kpiWidget color override) is still set to your purple value.
2. Check if the theme is still applied — go to Settings → Appearance → Theme and confirm your custom theme is active.
3. If you want to explicitly set the Headline value color, you can use:
{
"palette": {
"complementary": {
"c0": "#FFFFFF",
"c9": "#YOUR_PURPLE_COLOR"
}
}
}
Or for a more targeted override:
{
"dashboards": {
"content": {
"kpiWidget": {
"kpi": {
"value": {
"positiveColor": "#YOUR_PURPLE_COLOR"
}
}
}
}
}
}

Could you check whether your theme is still applied and share the relevant theme JSON? That would help narrow down the exact cause. 👍 0 button 👎 0 button ℹ️ Tip: Mention @kapa.ai in the thread for follow-ups.

When c9 is black, the top metrics are black too.
When c9 is purple, chart labels also become purple.
Is there a way to style these separately?
Desired result:
• headline/KPI values: #5f00f1
• chart data labels: #000000
Thanks a lot!Markéta Jedličková

06/24/2026, 8:06 PMkpiWidget.kpi.primaryMeasureColor (the theme property that controls KPI headline color independently from chart labels) is not being applied correctly in the live dashboard UI, while the export renders it correctly — which matches exactly what you observed.
We'll be filing an internal engineering ticket for this. Could you also confirm two things that will help us investigate further:
1. Were there any changes made to your theme or workspace recently?
2. When exactly did you first notice the color shift?
Thanks for your patience, we'll keep you posted!Markéta Jedličková
