Can you tell me why we have so limited customization?
We know that design is one of the most communicative aspects of our work with clients, because it can make a big impression regardless of functionality.
However, in Rise 360, customization is somewhat limited. This discussion arises from several factors, but specifically and personally, our team needs a color preset or design set in the “Themes” -> “Colors” section to create a clear aesthetic for each course we create. Because with each course we create, we have to go button by button and do the same thing over and over again.
Is there really no way to set a preset and design a course with a single click? (Color palette, font, navigation, etc.)
Best regards.

From a historical perspective that Rise was never intended to be a fully customizable authoring tool; that task went to Storyline. It was made for very simple authoring... quick and dirty course building.
With that said, they have made a lot of improvements to Rise over the last two years, one of them being block templates. Have you tried creating individual blocks or block groups using your client's colors and saving them as block templates?
Alternatively, you can create full template courses using your clients' different styles. Whenever a client needs something, you'll have a nice starter course to work off of.
I also recommend using something like BuddyBar to manage your different palettes. It's a nice way to copy hex values in a pinch!
