How do I change color of the question hint container... was created by cguest
Hi,
I'm not sure I'm using the correct terminology. Please forgive me if I'm not.

How can I change the color of the question hint container and the color of the font within it? I've circled the section I am referring to in the attached picture.
Thanks,
CGuest

This depends very much on the template used. Your's is obviously already modified, which makes things more difficult. Every modern browser has developer tools included, that allow you to check the characteristics and attributes of elements of a website. In Chrome for example you can open it with Shift+Control+i

  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

Add something like this to the end of custom.css:

Code:
.question-valid-container {
  background-color: #000000;
}

I am also trying to change the color font in that same container.
I tried:
.question-valid-container {
font-weight: bold;
color: #0743a9;
background-color: #bb7f0d;
}

This seems to work... but when I hover over the text... it reverts back to the original font. When I move the mouse away... it changes back to the color that I just set it.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
CGuest
