Custom Color for Alternating Background Shading

[miriambrueckner]

Hi there - is it possible to use custom colors for alternating background shading? That would be awesome. I do only understand a little bit of css and cannot figure out the selectors myself. Can you help?

If using OBS, you can insert this into the Custom CSS section:

body { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); margin: 0px auto; overflow: hidden; }

:root {
--highlight-base: red!important;
--highlight-base2: green!important;
}

Awesome and incredible - your answer was laser fast! Can I use transparent color, too? I tried --highlight-base: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.2)!important; but it does not seem to work. Am Mi., 9. Aug. 2023 um 22:21 Uhr schrieb Steve Seguin < ***@***.***>:

transparency I think should work,

ie

body { background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); margin: 0px auto; overflow: hidden; }

:root {
--highlight-base: #F0F4!important;
--highlight-base2: #F0F4!important;
}

I qould like to have transparent white but cannot get it to work. I tried --highlight-base: #FFF!important;
--highlight-base2: #FFF!important;
And the result is solid white:

What does it look like if you do #FFF7!important; ?

Looks like this (does not seem to work)

I'm not entirely sure at the moment what the solution is, as it's definitely transparent, but I guess the point is that it's darkening still. This could be just how OBS overlays transparencies, or something I'm missing in the CSS; not sure. I'll need to play with things and update you if I find something.

You could pick a solid light blue background color, but I suspect that's not what you want.
