        @keneda Worked fine with me when I modified it directly. You just need to restart the messaging app to make it take effect. Perhaps you were not able to copy the file successfully.

          @kugiigi Yes i restarted app as i restarted device itself, and i checked that the file was successfully copied (the modded one) before restarting, by opening it with seabass after doing the CP command, from the messaging-app folder.

          What color did you mod, and what color did you use to mod it?

            @keneda I changed it to blue and orange. Maybe you are on dark mode so lightGreen is still being used?

              Ohhh my god, i though i was modding for dark theme...
              I tested with clear theme just now and yes, it works!

              So, what do i need to mod for dark theme, the "lightcolors" ones?

              By the way, messaging app often crashs when i change theming, i noticed this before trying this thread mod.
              I have to try lot of time before being able to change theme in the app, then, when succesfull one time, i can change it without crash, untill i close app then it start again to crash.

                Answer to myslef, yes it is :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

                @kugiigi now i have one question, were i can find all colors supported? And, is RGB/HEX color supported? (for example can a take one color or its RGB or hex value from this site, first from qwant results : https://rgbcolorcode.com/ )

                  @keneda That is a known issue which is weird since other apps changes the theme without issues.

                  You can put colors in different formats. Just for color support in QML.
                  You can also pick a color from UITK.

                    OK i was going to open an issue when i find messaging app GIT, but i assume it already exist now ^^

                    Great thanks to you, @lduboeuf and @jezek for your help 🙂

                    EDIT : link from start of text on the page you gave me ("palette" https://ubuntu.com/developer/api/apps/qml/sdk-15.04.1/Ubuntu.Components.Themes.Palette ) is broken link by the way ^^

                      This is from Canonical. I don't think they'll make an update here before shutting it down completely...
                      But the first page should give you all that you need.

                        Yes i got it, ^^
                        And i can confirm that any color under #XXXXXX format works.

                          Great, now you're beginning to test things out and figuring out if it works.

                          So basically you became a coder 😉
