Hello,
Can anyone explain (like i'm 2 yrs) how i can change the blue back ground color in the smartview look?
Hi,
You need to change elements in the style sheets used by the Smart UI.
These are found in your Opentext directory. Mine is: \OpenText\Support\CSUI\Themes\carbonfiber\
If you use Chrome Developer tools you can see what style sheet elements are controlling the background color. In CS16.2.6 something has changed as we have a custom style sheet installed under the Smart View overriding default style, but the elements must have changed as it shows the new dark colour applied in 16.2.6.
Do you have someone who understands CSS and how its applied?

Thanks so much. i will find someone that knows CSS
Have a look at the example themes/alberi/ in the style override kit. It overrides the page background:
body.binf-widgets { background: #ee8866}
If you have graphics like the company logo, which does not look well with the dark navigaton header, which was introduced in CS 16.2.6, have a look at the example themes/light/. It overrides the default dark styling to get the previour light navigation header. You can use it temporarily, until you get graphics compatible with the dark styling.
Hi, thanks for the input. i have 16.2.5 and i see a CSS that is called overrides. should i change this? its located; support\csui\themes\dark
You are not supposed to modify files deployed by the installer. You should deploy your style override yourself, as an additional directory in the /support directory or somewhere else, so that it is accessible from the client browser. You willl find more about creating and deploying of style overrides in the README file of the style override kit.
I found a colleague that has knowledge of CSS and he showed me how to change the background color. it was done in the theme.css
