For my first demo (which I' m still working on) I just grabbed one of the templates to work with. I removed the color variable from some styles in the Styles folder and hardcoded the ones I want to use. I hope to understand this part better for the next demo and before my first real project. Going back to SVG drawings, it would be nice to wrap up tips and tricks in another post like this > [@Vector Graphics tips and tricks for Ignition 7.3](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/vector-graphics-tips-and-tricks-for-ignition-7-3/3492): > > The inclusion of vector graphics in Ignition 7.3 is putting some of us control systems guys into unfamiliar territory with graphics tools; until last week, Microsoft Paint was as sophisticated as I got.

Color was changed just as this post explained, drilling down to the fill or color property to change colors. But in the browser it looks like a null color or something.
