Please can I repeat my request that black / dark-colored bodies be rendered in a separate, usable color in modelling view?

Alternatively, body metadata (eg. edges and values) displayed in modelling view should be rendered in such a way as to have a high contrast with the color of the body they describe.

Thank you.

You can change the default modeling color here…

That does not solve my issue.
