Adding template to a flow fragment does not update color

Sun 10. Mar 2019, 10:24

Hi

Not sure if this is this is expected and it is me that is missing something (forgive me, I am new to articy:draft), but when I apply a template to a Flow Fragment only the icon is updated, not the chosen color.

Is this expected?

Best regards,

Hi thousande,

If a color was chosen for the template, then it should be displayed on the Flow Fragment after you assign the template to it. I just tried it and it worked as expected (please see video link: https://www.nevigo.com/external/forum/t ... _color.mp4)


If it still does not work for you, please describe the steps you take in detail, and we will try to find a solution.

Best regards,

Hi again,

Here is my (first) screen recording attempt

See how the icon is updated but not the color does not change (and never mind the content it self ;) )

Edit: I expected the same blue color as Leon's dialogue fragment to the right on the screen.

If I recall correctly I created the dialogue template after the work in flow

Let me know if you need more information

Also, restarting articy:draft does not solve the issue

Hi again,

I figured out a way around this by

1. right click on the flow fragment
2. select Open Properties.
3. in Template tab, click Apply Color.

Eg. I have to choose Apply Color in the properties window for this case. In other cases I can just right click the Flow Fragment and choose Apply Template in order to update the color.

Hi thousande,

If you had manually assigned a color to a fragment at one point it will not be updated when you assign a template to this object later.

What may be of help to you is one of our plugins - the Auto Assign Template plugin. With it you can define what templates are going to be assigned automatically with the creation of an object. When assigning a template right with creation the template color will always be assigned.

You can download the plugin here: https://www.nevigo.com/download/Mdk.Aut ... .Installer
Here you can find a little introduction for the plugin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8qpQKaTT0I
