CB 2.3.0 backend layout issues was created by sirweb
In the User Manager, the Group column uses text color #ffc107 (bootstrap.css line 8947) which gives a contrast value of 1.63:1 which is not accessible.
It is hard or impossible to read when being color blind or low vision.
Could you please reconcider this color selection?
Reference: webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/

Or, does CB backend template support css overrides, ie a custom.css file?

Also noticed that the download button in Plugins/ Install from web is misplaced in IE11. It shows to the div.
Unfortunately, at this time IE 11 is the only browser thaat fully supports ZoomText, Supernova and similar magnifying software used people with low vision.

We use Bootstrap 4 which is completely WCAG 2.0 compatible. Color contrasting will be subjective to your background color. You likely need to make the background color darker. Does hovering a row allow it to be more visible for you? We do not apply a background color in backend so it's subjective to whatever your backend Joomla template is using which maybe why there's contrasting issues since it's not being reset by Bootstrap.

Will review adding an option to CB to select a backend template (at this time it forces default), which would allow custom templates generated by CB Template Changer to apply to backend. Regarding CSS overrides no they do not load in backend as it typically causes too many odd conflicts.

Below are the Bootstrap 4 colors.

In addition to their accessibility note regarding color contrasts.

getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/getting-started/accessibility/#color-contrast

With that said the color choice for the Registered usergroup in the Groups column doesn't really make much sense. Have added a feature ticket to change it to a different Bootstrap 4 color.

IE11 does not 100% support flexbox so you may or may not have some layout issues like this. There's not much we can do about it as it's a limitation of the styling engine, but have added a note to take a look.

Thanks for your interest in this! :)

I understand. Only the Bootstrap 4 text.warning is hard to read among these text classes.
Changing background color may not be the best option here.

Having lots of custom Joomla Groups with Registered as parent, being able to change color woud be a perfect solution.,

Just curious, why is Registered set to text.warning color?

Thanks again!

Don't particularly know. Just how its always been styled going as far back as CB 1.x. Should ideally be green (text-success) or not colored at all.
