Markup in Photos

The default color in the textbox for markup in photos is red. I can't figure out how to switch to a different color for the text. I have been able to switch to a different color for the background but not the text. Help!

Can you change the background of the Photos edit screen from black to white? When I go from viewing a picture to editing the background changes to black. On some images it is easier to get the white balance correct with a white background. Can i change the background color in edit screen from black to white? I'm using the latest version of Photos.

Shadows Behind Icon Names Is there a way to pick the color of the text for app/icon names? I have a darker background, but want to keep the text dark instead of it being white with a shadow behind it. Surely there’s a setting for this with personalization being the goal.
