Matching colours?

[Mike Scott]

Using V5_CoolMax_EmeraldGreen_Webhelp skin, I get this



with my program logo based on a certain green roughly matching the green around the search. The header menu colours look a bit "washed-out".

The colour match is quite good.

I am assuming that changing the whole colour of the skin to match my logo colours is too complex, would require changes to many colour settings.
My questions are a) is that assumption correct, b) can the washed out colour look less washed out (and if so how).

Cheers

Hi Mike,

There is a config variable for this. Edit the skin in Toolbox, select the Variables button (it will be selected by default when you open the skin) and choose Color Settings as the filter in the dropdown menu next to the variables groups dropdown. Then select the Dropdown Menus group and edit the DROPMENU_BGCOLOR variable to the color you want to have.

If you want to edit the CSS directly the baggage file for the classic menu system you have chosen is HM_CLASSICMENU.css.
