I created a new color scheme and saved as .xml and saved into the schemes folder of Articulate Engage. However, when I open Engage and try to preview, I do not see the color scheme there. Can anyone help me? Thanks,
Are you opening a new Engage file? If so, the scheme you created won't automatically be selected as the default scheme. Have you tried checking to see what scheme is currently selected?
Thanks Christime... I saw my error about 1/2 hour after I posted this on New Years! I had 4gotten 2 NAME it.. I saw 2 defaults - one more strange than the other and that bothered me... after lots of thought, I realized I needed to name it in the xml coding... duh!!!Still learning! Thanks again!
Is it normal for the new custom xml to be much larger file than the pre-programmed ones? The Presenter xml color scheme files are typically 2-4 KB.. but the new color scheme that I created using the Player template tool is now 16 KB.. just checking.
I apologize for the delay, I've been on vacation. I'm glad you were able to work out the problem. No worries! I'm just glad to hear everything's up and running for you now
I personally haven't looked at the file sizes, but honestly I don't think that size would be something to worry about. Now, if it jumped up to a meg I'd be concerned! If you'd like me to test it out, I certainly can.

Hi Tammy,

It should show up under "Custom Schemes":
