Aussie change menu background colour

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

I have looked to change the colour of the wave pattern, and I can not find it anywhere.
I found this:
#topwrap::after {
content: '';
width: 100%;
height: 42px;
position: absolute;
background-image: url("data:image/svg+xml;charset=UTF-8,%3Csvg%20id%3D%22Layer_1%22%20data-name%3D%22Layer%201%22%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20100%209.54%22%3E%3Ctitle%3Ewavepattern%3C%2Ftitle%3E%3Cpath%20d%3D%22M137.14%2C11.36l-0.05%2C1.12a18.11%2C18.11%2C0%2C0%2C1%2C9.73%2C2.7L151%2C17.94c6%2C4%2C15.72%2C3.94%2C21.68%2C0l4.16-2.78a18.27%2C18.27%2C0%2C0%2C1%2C10.29-2.74v-1%22%20transform%3D%22translate%28-87.14%20-11.36%29%22%20fill%3D%22%23bfcb29%22%2F%3E%3Cpath%20d%3D%22M137.14%2C11.36l0.05%2C1.12a18.11%2C18.11%2C0%2C0%2C0-9.73%2C2.7l-4.18%2C2.76c-6%2C4-15.72%2C3.94-21.68%2C0l-4.16-2.78a18.27%2C18.27%2C0%2C0%2C0-10.29-2.74v-1%22%20transform%3D%22translate%28-87.14%20-11.36%29%22%20fill%3D%22%23bfcb29%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E");
background-size: 300px 47px;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-position-y: bottom !important;
background-position-x: center;
margin-top: 10px;
}

How can we alter the colour? That green definitely does not work for my client!

Hi

Do you have a colour value in mind?

Hi

I believe this colour uses the value of the Quaternary color in the template.

In the template:
Design > General Settings Style Panel > Colors > Quaternary
Change the colour value here or use the colour picker to select a colour to suit your design.

save the template and refresh your page to see the colour in the wave change.

I hope this helps.

Thanks Ian

Yep that is correct with the colour added as a background colour in the row style

The SVG of the wavy line is a little different

So how do you change the color of the svg? I open it and don't see a color in CorelDraw.

The colour is applied via the css fill value. The value is a variable in the template less file that is set at the Quaternary color.

The Quaternary color therefore provides the "fill" colour to the svg. There is no colour as such in the svg when you open it, so it is flexible in the template.

That is the theory as i understand it, but the developer may have a different view.

If you can post a link I'm sure jb support will take a look.

Until then you could check and clear your cache, in Joomla, the browser and on your host. Sometimes these hang on to settings.

Other thing is be sure we talking about the correct/same wave svg as there are two in this template.

JB support should then be able to target the help.

As Ian said which SVG are we looking at?

And a link would be great

I'm just looking at the double wave on trgriffith.com. It's white right now, but I initially wanted it a different color. After playing I couldn't figure out how so I kind of gave up until I was browsing and saw this thread.

Any further thoughts on this? As an example I've changed the background on the site to af8e35 however, the double wave is still white. My Quaternary color works for the top wave and is 636363.

}

It's within all the soup within the url for the background image. In the example above it's all 000000. Originally it was ffffff. I changed EVERY color value in buildr that was ffffff to ff0000 to try and find it. Nothing. So I came back to the CSS, after clearing my cache and it was still ffffff.
