Description Xeno Idaltu 2022-11-13 17:12:19 UTC
Fancy and Default Templates color schemes come with grey backgrounds that can't be changed via Color Options.

I take it you would like to use one of those templates but with a different color than grey? You can save them locally and edit them directly to change that color.

Save the Fancy.xsl file to ~/.local/share/tellico/entry-templates/ with perhaps a different name. Edit the file to change the  "background-color: #ccc;" in line 137 to something else. 

I'll think on adding a 5th color option. I'm a bit hesitant to make too many, but I understand your point about it currently being unconfigurable for those specific templates. The Album template also has a hard-coded dark grey.

I added a custom template to the KDE Store with the Fancy theme color modified.

You can install it from Tellico from the Configure->Templates->Download feature.
