    Like the title says, when I place a slider and enable its input field, I can not see the text I am entering in the input field. How would I change this?
    If I use any of the editor themes, so not the "Unity Default Runtime Theme" in the UI Builder it shows values, but not the version used inside unity, which uses the "Unity Default Runtime Theme"!

    How to fix this?

    We've seen problems with this recently, there has been a big refactoring of how text is handled in UI Toolkit and it affected the runtime theme.
    I can't seem to be able repro, so it was probably fixed recently. Which Unity version are you on?

    I am using unity editor version 2021.3.1f1. So it seems this is the newest LTS version?
    Do I have to switch to the alpha / beta version or should the fix already be included in 2021.3.1f1?

    I see, that version should not have been affected by the refactoring, so it's probably something else.
    You can try to use the Window -> UI Toolkit -> UI Debugger to pick the text field and see if the text is there. Maybe it's does not have a visible color? I'll ask the team if this is something we are aware of and get back to you!

    Same Problem here.
    I found that padding is set to 10px by default. If i override this per custum uss to 0px the slider input shows up correctly
