Jan 10, 2018Theme color not changing in Microsoft Forms
Hi there,
When I am using Microsoft Forms, I uploaded a header image and a background and it defaults to an orange color for the header text bar. I want that header text bar to be blue...

Hi Shannon
To my understanding (others can chime in if I am wrong), but you can't change the orange colour directly.
- When you select one of the default colours, it will colour the background and the boxes in that colour.
- When you select one of the pre-made themes, it will put a background image and change the colour of the boxes per that pre-made theme.
- When you try to upload a background image, I am not aware of how you can alter the colour of the boxes.
Here's an example with the pre-made orange theme with background, and my blue theme. Notice the blue theme boxes are the wrong colour.
Clicking onto any of the above points will reset your previous choice, which is why you keep losing your preferred colour upon clicking onto your desired background image.
It definitely needs to be an option for users. Maybe the Microsoft folk can add it to their to-do list?
Cheers

Jan 11, 2018Aw man, that's so unfortunate. It's default is this weird orange color
-- and our company branding does not match that... Shoot
- Damien_RosarioJan 11, 2018Silver ContributorWe have the same issue here. It's kind of a one or the other option except the coloured options aren't very flush with other colours that we can use.
This product was designed for schools and I believe they want to also adapt this to business thus the current themes are child friendly.
Guess it's a wait and see! If this has answered your question, please remember to select it as the best answer so that others will know we have resolved it!
Good luck!
Cheers
