Blacked out text in excel when using reporting text

Question

Does anyone have faced a similar problem when rendering output from the reporting text tools and the text area in the output excel file filled with something like the black background color?

Here's attached my sample workflow

Currently use Alteryx Version: 2021.2.1.35394

Hi @mohd_akid and @RolandSchubert

Interesting bug you should drop a mail to support@alteryx.com and notify tech support regarding this.

You are getting the default black fill color.

To change the color select the Text field and change the Fill Color - in this case to white.

Hi @mohd_akid ,

your workflow works fine using Alteryx 2021.1.4, there is no black background in the text area. It seems to be an issue with 2021.2.1 (and 2021.2.2 as well), tried it with both versions with the same result.

Best,

Roland
