Hi there - I've found a couple of articles on this, but they don't tell me exactly how to make the change.
We want to change the blue highlight boxes in the recordings, with the transparent blue fill, to no fill (we haven't decided on the outline colour yet).
We are using a customized set of theme colours (please see attached) - do any of the Accent colours (other than Accent 1) relate to highlight boxes in a recording.
We had documented a method to custom the captions that are generated for screen recordings in Storyline 2 here. You could look at using a similar method in Storyline 3/360, although with different paths to the installation files, but we haven't tested it yet to be sure!
Thanks for the response, but I was asking about changes to the Highlight box, not the captions. i.e. when the cursor in the recording points and clicks, a highlight box outlined in blue, with transparent blue fill, appears as the item is clicked.
Is there any way to change those colours?
Thanks,
Rita.

Thanks so much for attaching that screenshot. The Design Theme colors aren't related to the small blue rectangle that appears on screen recording slides.
The best way to customize this rectangle is to manually select the colors on the first rectangle, then use the format painter to apply the same formatting to the other rectangles. Let me know if that helps!
thanks - I'll try that and let you know if it does the trick!

Hi Rita,
I'm not sure what box you're referring to if not the captions/hints as well.
How are you adding your screen recording to your project (view, try, or test mode)?
Any chance you can share a screenshot or the .story project for us to take a look?
Hi there - here is a screenshot - I've circled what I'm referring to:

Thanks!

Hi Rita,
A screenshot would be a huge help - but sadly responding via email doesn't upload those attachments here. 😔
Can you click here to visit the discussion and upload a copy for us?
HI Ashley - i didn't realize you weren't receiving the images - here you go...
