How to change the color of Unreal's built in subtitles?

I’m currently using UE’s built in subtitles with all my audio but the problem is that my game mostly consists of white walls which means the subtitles are very difficult to read. Is there a way to change the color?

I don’t think it’s possible to change the font color, only size:

You could add more fonts, or use the HUD to superimpose a half-white box under the subtitles to make them easier to read on white:

When you say use the hud, does that mean I can make it appear under every subtitle?

Well, you either need a semi-white band there the whole time, or you can figure out how to put it there only when subs are present…

Also, if you open the roboto font in the engine content ( see that utube link for opening the engine content ), you can swap over the background and foreground colors :slight_smile:
