Sharepoint Site/Document Library Accent Color
Hi,
Please help. Where is the accent colour for SharePoint sites/libraries stored/modified?
Our main document library is red but our company colour is green. Everyone hates the red and my boss is continually badgering me to change it. I can't find a setting anywhere.
Please help me ... how do I change the red (above) to green!!
Thanks
Stuart

- Site Settings -> Change the Look.
- It is true that the the accent color for the "New List Experience" can be changed by choosing a theme in the "Look & Feel > Change the look" menu item, or by applying custom branding.
However, when I checked, the exact color did not appear in the theme preview. I had a default site with the "Office" theme selected (default Colors), and Seattle site layout. Accent 5 looked like the accent color (#ee0410) from the list/library but was not that exact color.
When I changed the theme, the new List experience would change, along with the colors displayed in the theme preview. Not sure what the exact color parameter is for the new experience if you would apply custom branding...If you want custom branding then this is done via a .spcolor file which you upload into Theme 15 folder. Get to the themes via Site Collection / Web Designer Galleries
You can make the changes you want using the menu on the left side of that page.
