Where can I find this colour in the options?

Hi

I'd like to ask where I can find the block colour for conrefs in the options (screenshot below), so that I can change it (if that's even possible). I'm using Author 19.1. I think I've looked pretty thoroughly, but haven't seen it yet.
Thanks guys!

Hi,

That particular color does not come from Oxygen's global settings, it comes from a builtin CSS stylesheet we automatically use every time content is rendered in the Author visual editing mode.
You will need to create a custom CSS to control this color:

Code: Select all

@media oxygen-high-contrast-black, oxygen-dark-theme{
    oxy|reference,
    oxy|entity {
        background-color: rgb(100, 100, 100) !important;
    }
}

and then use it for DITA editing:

If you find a color which looks better to you and you want to share it with us, we can consider changing the defaults in a future version.
