You can easily change the colour scheme in Studio to suit your needs. The 'Look and Feel' settings in the Administration interface allow you to customise the colour scheme of the Top Bar (i.e. header) and Menu Bar (i.e. subheader) of the projects toolbar. The colour of headings and links in the 'Issues' application can be customised as well.
Due to a known issue with cache settings in Studio, the colour scheme of your projects toolbar will not immediately refresh when you update it. You will need to perform a once-off force refresh to see your changes.
To change the colour scheme in Studio,
Click the menu labelled with your user name in the the JIRA Studio header, and select the 'Administration' link. You will need to be logged in as an administrator to see this link.
- Click the 'Look and Feel' link under the 'Global Settings' section of the sidebar menu.
- The 'Look and Feel Configuration' page will display. Click the 'Edit Configuration' link at the bottom of the page to edit the settings.
- In the 'Colours' section, the colour scheme for Studio will be displayed. The JIRA documentation provides explanations for each of the colour scheme elements.
 | Please take note of the following JIRA Studio-specific information when reading the JIRA documentation:
- 'Top Bar' in JIRA is equivalent to 'Header' in JIRA Studio
- 'Menu Bar' in JIRA is equivalent to 'Navigation Bar' in JIRA Studio
- (JIRA Studio only setting) 'Header Highlight Background Colour' — the background colour that is displayed when highlighting elements in the JIRA Studio header, e.g. background colour of a tab when you hover your mouse over it.
- (JIRA Studio only setting) 'Header Text Highlight Colour' — the text colour that is displayed when highlighting elements in the JIRA Studio header, e.g. colour of the text of a tab when you hover your mouse over it.
- (JIRA Studio only setting) 'Header Separator Colour' — this setting is currently not used in JIRA Studio.
- (JIRA Studio only setting) 'Header Menu Indicator Image' — the colour of the dropdown indicator on the menus in your JIRA Studio header (i.e. a light-coloured image for dark backgrounds or a dark-coloured image for light backgrounds):
- The 'Link Colour', 'Link Colour' and 'Heading Colour' elements only affect the appearance of pages within 'Issues' (JIRA). They do not affect the other applications within JIRA Studio (e.g. 'Wiki').
