Adding Font Colors to Palette
Is it possible to permanently add custom font colors (company-branded hex colors) to my Rise color palette? I can highlight text and type in the hex code, but I have to do that each and every time which is very time-consuming, especially with a large project.

As I develop eleven new courses this month, I imagine a world where I can select multiple words or phrases in a block, open the text editor and just select a branded color in my palette. But alas, I must individually highlight each word or phrase, wait for the text editor to appear, type in the hex code, and apply it. Then do that again for the next word or phrase, and the next, and the next, into mind-numbing perpetuity.
Because this has not been resolved for literal years now, I have been researching alternative authoring tools for our senior leadership to consider. I tried seeing if this was specifically on the feature roadmap but the link offered in one of the first comments doesn't seem to list it.- NicoleParasi225Community Member
Agreed! The fact that you cannot build a basic swatch palette for all functions. This feature is something that basic PowerPoint has. It's mind boggling, it's as though nobody understands branding.

This very simple feature must really be prioritized. I get that Rise already has Themes, and the essence of this tool is to create plug and play courses that instantly look nice.
But come on, the value from this feature is such a no-brainer that most of the tools we use that allows us to edit colors has this feature. Even websites where we download icons allow us to save custom colors.
This thread is 2 years old and it's quite disheartening to see that this simple feature still doesn't exist in a tool that was meant to make publishing courses simpler and easier.

Please prioritize this feature. I've spent so much unnecessary time typing in hex codes. Block templates only really work with net-new content not updating. My company is going through a rebrand which requires updating hundreds of ecourses.

I agree... Prioritizing this feature in Rise would be incredibly beneficial for users worldwide. 😊

If you're not going to implement the ability for users to add a custom colour swatch, how about just adding a last used colour swatch, like in PowerPoint or Word.

Hi Joyce, Ariana, and Antti,
Thanks for reaching out! We are still gathering votes for the ability to create a custom color palette in Rise 360. We've added your voice to the feature report, and we'll update this discussion if there are any changes that might help.
I appreciate your additional comments on why this feature will benefit you and your organization. I've informed our product team.

It would be also helpful if I could set the style for each level (heading, subheading, body, etc.) and it updates in ALL the blocks. It is absolutely frustrating to have to update each and every block individually in each lesson.

It would be great to have this feature, as manually inputting the hex code every time is rather tedious.
- JoyceNoval-0698Community Member
Are there any updates on this feature? It will be really helpful if we can set a custom font color from our branding, one dark and one light.

I'm also eagerly waiting for this feature. We have 8 official colors and I would love to use only those in Rise
