Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue

Delete task item color should not change

What is the root cause of that problem?

We don't have the conditions for this

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We can update this line like

pendingAction={props.draftMessage || ReportUtils.isCanceledTaskReport(props.taskReport, props.action) ? null : props.action.pendingAction}

App/src/pages/home/report/ReportActionItem.js

Line 621 in 6d67552

pendingAction={props.draftMessage ? null : props.action.pendingAction}

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Web - Delete task message text color change in offline mode

What is the root cause of that problem?

We don't update pendingAction of parent report action to null in successData and failureData when we cancel the task

App/src/libs/actions/Task.js

Lines 819 to 826 in d0b4912

	const successData = [
	{
	onyxMethod: Onyx.METHOD.MERGE,
	key: `${ONYXKEYS.COLLECTION.REPORT_ACTIONS}${taskReportID}`,
	value: {
	[optimisticReportActionID]: {
	pendingAction: null,
	},

That makes this action is blurred in offline

App/src/pages/home/report/ReportActionItem.js

Line 621 in d0b4912

pendingAction={props.draftMessage ? null : props.action.pendingAction}

@johncschuster, @robertKozik Eep! 4 days overdue now. Issues have feelings too...

[robertKozik]

Thank you both for your proposals @ZhenjaHorbach @dukenv0307 . I think the proper root cause was introduced by @dukenv0307 and solution tackles the cause directly. That's why I think we should proceed with @dukenv0307 proposal
