CSS Variables in Ionic 4
CSS Variables in Ionic 4
I am trying to change the color of the icon in the selected tab and am really struggling with how to overwrite the variable.
I'm doing the following:
ion-tabs
--color-selected: #ff7800 !important;
--ion-color-contrast: #ff7800 !important;

I figured it out! It looks like --ion-color-contrast stems from the original them that you've applied to the component, in my case "dark". So I actually need to overwrite --ion-color-dark-contrast as follows:
ion-tabs
--ion-color-dark-contrast: #ff7800 !important;
Please look at the url ref.

Yep! I've read both. I thought I was doing what they said, but it is never overwriting. I'm specifically not able to change the color of the selected tab.
