SmartDashboard - Changing Default Text Color on Smart Dashboard

[Asymons]

Hello,

I hope everyone is having a relaxing winter break. I have a small question regarding the smart dashboard, more specifically the text inputted into it. I would like to know, if possible, how to change the text color to support a black background of some sort. I'm relatively new to the Smart Dashboard, being the first year we are implementing it with our robot so I'm unsure if this is a beginner type question or what not; however, I was wondering the possibility of this. Mind you this is not a mandatory issue, as it only serves to be ascetically pleasing in the driver station. The only work around I've found is to input a string of some sort

 SmartDashboard.putString(" ", " ");

to get that white box background; however if there is a way to change the text, that would be most preferable.

Here's an image to what I am talking about if I'm not making much sense.
(Note the right half of label being covered by a black background)



TL;DR I want to change the default text color of label and the commands.

EDIT: Robot is programmed in Java to clarify.
