Colour Schemes and custom themes

[Glenn Garraway]

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to upgrade one of our custom themes for Confluence 5.2 and I'm having trouble with the colour scheme. The Atlassian documentation only lists the colour keys up to Confluence 3.0, and it seems they have changed since then. Can someone please provide the latest list of these keys?

Here's what I had for Confluence 3.5...

<colour-scheme key="defaultscheme" name="External Colour Scheme" class="com.atlassian.confluence.themes.BaseColourScheme">

<colour key="property.style.topbarcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.navbgcolour" value="#b32a31"/>

<colour key="property.style.navtextcolour" value="#ffffff"/>

<colour key="property.style.breadcrumbstextcolour" value="#ffffff"/>

<colour key="property.style.spacenamecolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.headingtextcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.linkcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.bordercolour" value="#b32a31"/>

<colour key="property.style.navselectedbgcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.navselectedtextcolour" value="#ffffff"/>

<colour key="property.style.topbarmenuselectedbgcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.topbarmenuitemtextcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.menuselectedbgcolour" value="#b32a31"/>

<colour key="property.style.menuitemtextcolour" value="#a01202"/>

<colour key="property.style.menuitemselectedbgcolour" value="#b32a31"/>

<colour key="property.style.menuitemselectedtextcolour" value="#ffffff"/>

</colour-scheme>

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick reply, but both those links are missing a few keys. Confluence 5.2 list 19 configurable items in it's colour scheme (as defined in both the global and space colour schemes) as follows...

Top Bar

Top Bar Text

Header Button Background

Header Button Text

Top Bar Menu Selected Background

Top Bar Menu Selected Text

Top Bar Menu Item Text

Menu Item Selected Background

Menu Item Selected Text

Page Menu Selected Background

Page Menu Item Text

Heading Text

Space Name Text

Links

Borders and Dividers

Tab Navigation Background

Tab Navigation Text

Tab Navigation Background Highlight

Tab Navigation Text Highlight

The equivalent atlassian-plugin.xml colour keys must be listed somewhere.

Actually, you're spot on. That last link above lists the correct keys for Confluence 5, and matches the list of colours in the Confluence global colour scheme and the Confluence API for the ColourScheme interface perfectly.

Thank you.
