Default colours in V2 elements

[markhd]

I want to make sure i’m not misunderstanding how defaults work in Pro 2.3.3 and follows on from this thread https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/remove-the-default-text-color-in-text-element-v2-in-pro/15792

1. When I add a Classic Heading or Classic Text the color is per the Typography Settings (it’s cascading per the CSS)

2. When I add a V2 Heading or V2 Text the color defaults to rgb(0,0,0,1) and needs to be changed per item (inline CSS)

3. If my client says they’ve changed their mind about font color then, if I’ve used V2 elements, I need to trawl back over the whole site manually updating every V2 Heading and V2 Text element

I’m praying I’ve misunderstood this!

Hi There @markhd

Thanks for writing in! There’s no inbuilt functionality as you can see it on the referenced thread. However as workaround, you can create a custom CSS rule and add it into your X -> Theme Options -> CSS area and then you will need to assign that CSS class to your elements when you’re adding a new element.

Example:

.my-default-color {
  color:red;
}

Or else, you can make use of color palette by adding default colors under X -> Settings -> Colors.

Thanks!
