It will be helpful if the colour palette can remember 'recently used' colours please. I have to enter the HEX code, every time I have to use a particular colour. Adding a recently used section to the palette or an eye dropper will help. What do people think? Do you agree that this will be a useful feature to have?
Recent colors area, and a custom set we can create and use (more than one color), to demonstrate our brand from project to project, would be appreciated!
What's the status on this? It's frustrating typing in a HEX number EVERY SINGLE TIME I change a color. Seems like this has been an issue for years and a lot of users are tired of hindered work flow and still nothing's being done about it.
I'm quite surprises RISE 360 do not have a possibility to create a custom palette, its basic for any sort of branding. Most companies will have their set of approved brand colors, and it will speed up the development process if those colors could be included in the customized theme created by the design teams. It will remove the burden of the content creators, instructional designers, etc of having to remember or have a copy of the HEX color code and type that or copy and paste it in every title or any accent object/text in their lessons or modules.
I believe it should even include a title/heading theme menu where you could predefine the text font and size and color. So when you put a title, it comes with all those 3 elements by default, rather than having to set those manually every time.
Buttons, too, you can change the background color, for example in the Continue, but you cant change the button fill color, so if you want to make the continue background your accent color, say for example blue, and make the button, white, you can't, you will end up with a big blue block and maybe just a White Text saying continue.
It looks half cooked to me, those things I mentioned, are like the super basic customization items a designer would expect to have control over, when branding content.
In currently testing RISE to evaluate a proposal to my company´s L&D team, and having all this limitations when it comes to branding, compared with other eLearning/training development tools out there, are making me hesitant. I think we are going to lose a lot of our brand identity on the training we develop.
It's a horrible time waster to have to find the HEX # and copy and paste it every time you want to use your custom color(s) throughout. Rise can not even remember it in the palette if it's the same customer HEX # as used in the THEME!! Please improve. Thank you.
Adding to this - it would be a great time saver even if it was a simple 'recently used' selection in the color picker. Or a format painter like there is in Storyline.
Just another voice in the mob to ask for this feature again - even if just the recently used, or a picker/dropper tool - SOMETHING rather than having to copy/paste a hex code every time! :) Thank you!! :)
Unless im missing something, this isn't quite what we need (but is a nice to have). we want the ability to create our own set of 4-5 colors (or more!). Currently, I can only set one custom color. Please add 3-4 more slots and we're golden.
Better yet, create a palette that can be set up outside of a course and then applied to all courses to assist with company branding. thanks!
Thanks for the tip Karl! Unfortunately, it doesn't really meet the need this topic is asking for because you can't use that custom color for text. If you want to apply a certain color to certain words, you have to manually enter the hex code every single time.
Hello, I came here specially to see if I was overlooking how to save a HEX code and can see from this thread you can not. This would be a huge time saver when there are specific codes companies are required to use.

Most definitely being able to save varous custom colours would be and extreme time saver.

Strongly agreed, it would save so much time. Are there any updates on the status of this request?
Infuriating that you can't do something as basic as this. Not exactly a 'deep dive' as staff below have called it.
Not exactly a 'deep dive' Katie - this is just basic adding to a colour palette. Rise is infuriatingly limited in its editabilty.
it's just adding a couple of constants and calling them from the editor
so yes, literally everyone who uses the product wants this feature. maybe time to implement as this thread has been open for over 4 years?
"Infuriatingly limited" is the best way to describe it. This is a definite shortcoming.

Agreed Emily. Beggars belief something so simple isn't possible. Infuriating
I've seen some requests still opened after 10 years Gabe. It's really bad.
Adding to this - it would be a great time saver even if it was a simple 'recently used' selection in the color picker. Or a format painter like there is in Storyline.

Hi Meg,
Custom Color Palette
Set your favorite colors in theme settings, then quickly apply them anywhere custom color options are available.

Awesome, thanks Karl!!! I would still love the "recently used" for the custom selection, but this is a huge step in the right direction!! :D Thanks :)

Not yet.
It is so tedious. You can set a theme colour. But I work with brands that have a colour palette and I have to copy and paste the hex code everytime
This - 100%
This request is now 5 years old Katie Riggio.
Please tell us, is there any update?
