css.types.color.system-color - Chrome doesn't support AccentColor anymore

[xaddict]

What type of issue is this?

Incorrect support data (example: BrowserX says "86" but support was added in "40")

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

Chrome doesn't support AccentColor as a color value anymore, at least in Chrome 118 and Chrome Canary 120

What browsers does this problem apply to, if applicable?

No response

What did you expect to see?

When I set an element to use background-color: AccentColor it should take over the currently selected accent color of the system.

Did you test this? If so, how?

Yes, I set up a test page in Firefox, Chrome, Safari and used the inspector to set the background color of an element to AccentColor. In Firefox and Safari this worked, but in chrome the value gets ignored

Can you link to any release notes, bugs, pull requests, or MDN pages related to this?

Accent color just doesn't have its own data by the looks of things. Given it's newer than the rest of should do. (Safari should be partial support or at least with a note because it's a fake colour).

(Safari should be partial support or at least with a note because it's a fake colour).

Safari uses accentcolor = blue, like on iOS, so they fully support it, they just don't reflect the accent color of the system appearance panel

[lukewarlow]

I think it's slightly disingenuous to present that as full support given the entire purpose of the colour is to match other UA styled UI that uses the system accent color. At the very least a note should be added even if not partial flag.

#21150 added a subfeature for AccentColor and AccentColorText, marking Chrome as supported behind a flag!

I know. I added that 😉 Met vriendelijke groet, Luuk Lamers
