I have been searching to no avail for how to change the color on the time-price boxes TEXT. I can manipulate the box color, but the "foreground" or text color I cannot seem to set as desired. For current price box, I can select both box color and foreground or text color.

I am using a very light gray chart background, black text, and would really like white text on these aforementioned time-price and indicator value boxes (vwap)etc. Makes the text values very easy to see.

Any suggestions appreciated.

We are not sure exactly what "time-price boxes text" you are referring to. Can you please give us a screenshot that points out that specific item you are referencing? You can take a screenshot by following these instructions:

Please note: I could not invoke the global cross-hair with accompanying time/price boxes and save for the chart capture, but they also follow along with the vwap brown box on the y-axis which shows the text in gray which does not tend to stand out very well. I just wanted to make this text white, as the current price box in which the text is nicely visible. For example...

Sorry to be such a pain with this but bugging me quite a bit. And maybe it is possible to do this and I just don't know where to look to invoke this.

Thanks for the assistance!

Those prices are using the same color as the Chart Background. If you change the background, that will change the color of those prices.

Another option would be to enable the option for Reverse Colors for the Value Labels items. The color of the text is then the color of the Subgraph, or you can use the "Label" option and set another color. Refer to the following:
