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?

Currently use Alteryx Version: 2021.2.1.35394

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

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.
