3744840 - Buttons are not visible in tables that have two header rows, such as on the Release Center page

Symptom

  • Buttons are not visible on table with two headers rows.
  • Unable to see the options to assign, unassign, manage articles in Release Center even with the required permissions.

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Log in to the instance with a user who has Release Center permissions (including the ability to assign users to articles and relevant object permissions).
  2. Open Release Center.
  3. Observe that the Assign, Unassign, and Manage options are not visibly displayed.

Cause

The buttons/options are present but the button text color matches the background color of the header bar due to the active theme, making them effectively invisible until hovered or when active.

Resolution

Adjust the theme to ensure sufficient contrast for link/button text:

  1. Go to Theme Manager.
  2. Navigate to Fine Tune > Portlets.
  3. Change the “Body Link Text Color” to a contrasting color so the buttons are visible.
  4. Save and apply the theme.
  5. If desired, also adjust the header/bar background color for better contrast.
  6. Note that changing “Body Link Text Colour” affects link text across the instance, not only in Release Center; validate the change in key pages.
