Did Microsoft remove all customization options for displaying a custom form?

Looking through the reference docs for MS Power Automate Desktop, it lists out a ton of customization options on the Display Custom Form action such as background color, font color, etc. When actually running the software, I see none of these options anymore. The only customization options that I see is to set a customer background image. But then, even if you set it to a dark image, the text will still be dark since there is no way to change the text color.
Did MS remove all the customization features from what was supposed to be a custom form?

While I can see what you mean...

Could you try to roll back 1 or 2 versions and see if it is back to how you think it should be? My wife is the PAD expert so I'd have to ask her and she isn't home atm.

Text block does have Color option

So if you have dark background image change the text color to Light

But I think it doens't have background color since its an adaptive card and adaptive cards don't seem to have background color option (atleast the version Power Automate uses).

You can add a container by pasting the action to a text editor and surrounding all the elements with a container. Like so:

But the colors are very faded and it does not do the whole background of the message box. I think emphasis is the darkest one I could find. (just "dark" does not work)

Warning would look like this:

Also if you do this custom editing then you cannot edit the action anymore in PAD . It will give error if you try to edit the form since PADs Display custom message -actions edit form does not have container in it. And after that the whole flow editor will be greyd out for me and I need to close the flow editor.
