Customize text contrast of Cover Photo
Hi,
Could you help me with the following.
In the feature 'Cover Photo' the text contrast is ranged between 10% en 90%. However, when selecting 10%, there is still a considerable degree of (dark) contrast in my Cover Photo. Is there a way to set 0% contrast?
Thank you!
Alexander
Hi there, Cathy! Good news -- this setting exists in the cover page options under the Theme menu. Select Edit > Text contrast > and change the contrast to 0%.

Great question, Alexander!
For the Rise cover photo, you can adjust the contrast levels between 10% and 90%. Are you using your own image file, or an image from the Content Library?
If you're using your own image file, you could adjust the contrast of the photo in a photo editing tool outside of Rise before uploading it to the cover photo area.
Hello,
same issue here. I uploaded a photo with our Company logo which is a very specific color. However, due to the 10% contrast that is directly applied, the color is not compliant with our Brand guidelines and rejected. I have no clue on how to adapt the color before uploading so that it respect the right distribution of RGB. It also contains some white text (name of the Company), so with the 10% always turns grey instead white. Any clue on how to solve this? Thanks
Thanks Alyssa!
It's my own image file, so i'll try to adjust the contrast in an editing tool. However it would be a lot easier to add a 0% contrast feature in Rise. Hope this is possible in the near future.
Thanks again for your help!

Hi Yoampi,
I really appreciate you adding your voice here. Rise automatically adds contrast to cover photos to make it easier to read the title text. However, I can understand how that would affect branding colors, and it makes sense that you would need a 0% contrast option.
I know our team is always keen to hear about how we can improve our tools to be more useful for you, so I can certainly pass along your suggestion. Thanks for letting us know what you'd like to see!
Great!! Thanks a lot Alyssa. I hope we can make it :)
Hello Alyssa,
This is an ongoing problem we're having as well. Has Rise found a solution to this problem since this was first posted 8 months ago?
Great question Andrew,
I’m also waiting for a solution for this, since the current dark contrast is not complient to our company’s guidelines on the use of our logo’s.
Please help us to resolve this issue dear Rise team!
Best,
Alexander
Hey folks!
Thanks for checking in. Setting the contrast to 0% isn't an option at this time, but we're still monitoring this request. We'll let you know if this functionality is added in the future!
My company's logo is pure white and we would like to have our logo displayed through out our trainings. Our work around here is to put the logo in a cover photo and have it display above the menu. Problem is is that the contrast at 10% shows the logo as gray instead of white. Our branding department is not happy.
Seems like allowing us to set this to 0% would be an easy win for your development team, and a huge win for any of us who work within brand guidelines.
I’ve been having the same problem here Matt. For almost two years now! Unfortunately the Articulate Support team does nothing to address this matter, apart from saying it’s a great question, that they ‘re monitoring the request, working on it etc etc. So far nothing has been done.
Hi Matt and Alexander,
It's been a while since we've replied here, so I wanted to share an update. This feature isn't on our immediate roadmap, but I'd like to bring it up with our product team again. If I get an update, I'll be sure to pass it along to you!
I also need this as it is not compliant with our brand guidelines. At present I am having to find an alternative platform which is such a shame as I do like Rise.
I put in a feature request for this, I would recommend everyone do the same. The more times this gets requested the more likely this will get on the radar.
I did supply this image with my feature request... its the rise branding used as a cover photo. Maybe seeing how their own branding gets skewed will get this on the radar even sooner. :)
How has this option not been implemented yet?? Ridiculous.
