Ability to change the field color for signers

It would be great if we could designate the same color scheme by default. For example, the first signer is red, the second is blue, the third is green, etc. If there is only one signer, then red.

For those who do not know, the contact appears to be assigned color based on the email address that's entered - no matter how many times you delete the contact and recreate it with the same email address.
However, a workaround is to add "+" before the @ symbol in an email address. For instance, if you want adam@company.com to be a signer, make the contact adam+@company.com for the color to change and for the email to still reach the recipient. You can test emailing yourself with "+" if you'd like. I can confirm that adding a "+" did change the color for a contact so my two signers now have different colors assigned so they know what they're each responsible for.

I repeatedly have the same color assigned to both signers of a document. Please fix this confusing setting!

This isn't remotely disability friendly- the colors often show up so that it's impossible to differentiate for someone that's color-blind.
But that's being kind. I mean the default colors are nearly impossible to tell apart without color blindness. RED and PINK for signing roles generated back to back? Yikes.
Honestly, the lack of basic functionality is so frustrating.

DocuSign has this and it's super helpful when I need several people signing ONE document. I do this with Shareholder Meeting when not everyone can be present.

Often it happens that two different signee's get allotted the same colour. This makes applying signing tabs more confusing, especially when both people have to input information on the same page. So far i've seen it happen with purple and red. When sending a large volume of documents, this increases our risk of costly mistakes.

Hi Team, sometimes the system creates very similar colors for each role we create. Is it possible to have the possibility to create select the colors ourselves? This would avoid similar colores and let me manage the color for any color blind user.

With all of the features baked into here, this is honestly kind of ridiculous that it cannot be changed. Lock it down at the Template level like you do with Approvers if need be. Or if they HAVE to be randomly selected when the document is created, then create some code that assigns colors that are opposite on the color wheel. Just do something with it please.

change the color of the fillable fields
sometimes it chooses a good color that stands out (example a red or green checkbox) and other times it chooses light brown or a color that doesn't look good or get attention.

It would be great if we could change the colors of the signature boxes, etc. We work with a lot of schools and it would be a nice touch to be able to use their school colors.

Since there is an auto assign foe the color that is chosen for recipients, clients, etc sometimes the colors are SUPER close and then you have to actually hover over the field to see who it is assigned to versus being able to use the visual colors.
My suggestion is to allow us to assign colors. -

Client wants the ability to change colors of the roles

This can cause issues with visually ensuring your fields are correct and mapping to the correct person. At minimum, making it possible to ensure every recipient has a different color would be a huge help. Thank you!

Why can you not change their colors? It auto assigned and now you can't tell the difference. Very poor design

ability to change or choose role colors

Customer would like to have different color indicator for each signers when they are assigned to a field.
"this will really make it hard for my clients to discern where they need to fill in or sign, compared to the info I need to fill in"
"its confusing. Both signers being the same color is not good"
"yes please, doesn't it seem obvious that you wouldn't want both signers (or any signers if there were more) to be in the same color?"

The initials and signatures are very light and sometimes hard to read, can they be made darker?
