Change color of entire form

Posted by oren944 - Feb 5 ’15 at 04:12

Hello,

Is it possible to change the color of the entire form from its original grey color along with the tabs? Or is this a standard that can not be changed?

When you click on individual tabs you are not given a CSS Class option on the right hand menu.

Thanks!

Sure, you can override particular styles with the help of CSS or even define your own theme with the help of theme roller as described in our blog:

Has anything changed with the different versions of spfom? I downloaded the theme css , hover it does not seem to effect the styles. I know jquery-ui has had some version changes over the years. Which version are we supposed to be using at this point?

[#2]:

In recent versions of FD the jQuery version is 1.11.3. When you download a theme, select the "Stable, for jQuery1.6+" option, then use the jquery-ui.min.css file. This will change styling of jQuery controls like the accordion and the tab control, but not others, like buttons, related items, etc. Other controls are styled via regular Sharepoint themes (Gear icon -> Change the look).

Don't know your particular use-case, but here's an example. If you add "myinput" CSS classname to an input field in Forms Designer, then adding the following CSS to the CSS editor will do it:
```
.myinput input:focus {

    border-color:red;

} 
```

Hi - I have downloaded a theme from themeroller, it applies the color on the tabs and accordions but not to the buttons. Is there a possibility to chnage their colors as well using 'Style' or CSS Editor? Thanks

Hi,

Apply the following CSS classes to your buttons:
```
ui-button ui-corner-all ui-widget 
```
(simply paste into the CSS Class box for each button in Forms Designer)
