It sounds to me like an unintended consequence of theming. Try changing your theme and see if it's better. If so, then we can try to find out if some part of that display has a combination of some colors set by the theme, and some set directly - leading to a black on black type situation. (By the way - when specifying Qt and KDE/Plasma versions, you need to get them from the KMyMoney Help/About KMyMoney Components tab. Your main installation is using 6.2.4/6.8.0/6.8.1 versions, but for now, KMyMoney is still compiled against older versions. Once 5.2 is released in the near (but not yet specified) future, we will release a version fully updated for Qt6/KDE6.)
I had already tried changing themes. It was installed when I was using "Breath Dark". I then tried Breath Light and Breeze. It didn't make a difference even with rebooting in between changes.

The background of this widget is controlled via the color settings (since it is a required field). Do you use custom colors (see Settings/Configure KMyMoney/Colors)? If no, does it make a difference to switch to yes? If yes, what is the color for "Required field"? What happens if you change it to #ffffdd?
Ah, that did it. I had seen the color settings, but didn't recognize that the required field was what controlling that field. Thank you
