Hi - I created a list within sharepoint for a teams channel and it defaulted to white even though my theme for Teams is dark. I prefer this, but when I created another list on another channel using the prior list as a template the background was dark within teams. Is it possible to change this back to white? The colors for the status present neon and overall I prefer viewing lists in a white background similar to an excel file. Please help. See pic for reference.

Hi - Still having the same issue. If I create a new Sharepoint page using the project management template and then add it to teams the list keeps a white background even though my Teams is set to dark mode. Any lists added after that have a dark background. Even lists added from a newly created project management Sharepoint page, when moved to an existing teams page they move to a dark background. See below. MSB Task Tracker first created by setting up a new Sharepoint project management site then added it to an existing teams page and the background reverts to the teams app theme. Is there a way to change this. I want everything in dark mode except the lists like the image at the bottom of this post.
I found a work around. On my Sharepoint page thats already created, if I apply the project management template again from the settings section it will create another set of PM an d issue tracking lists that appear with a white background in Teams while maintaining the dark theme for the entire app.

Hi @Maiza Mock
Could you please tell me did you create the list via the SharePoint tab within the channel?
According to our tests, the background color of the list is not affected by the Teams theme color. The background color of the list is only affected by the SharePoint settings.
You can change the background color of the list by changing the SharePoint appearance color.
