Unfortunately, black text over features isn't possible currently, due to 
a technical issue in the way Jalview renders features. I'm hoping we'll 
be able to fix it in early 2014. All I can suggest is that if you need 
to create a diagram, you export the alignment figure using EPS, and 
change the text colour in Inkscape or Illustrator.

Really sorry about that.  If you'd like to get emailed when someone 
starts to work on a fix for this, then sign up and hit the 'Watch'

Jim.
ps.  You'll see that this feature request has been around for several 
years - this reflects the fact that we've mostly conserved the core 
alignment display model, but added additional capabilities to calculate 
and integrate information within the model. With Jalview 3 we hope to to 
(radically) change the model, and so allow more sophisticated feature 
rendering styles.
