What Are Default Content Styles?

The Default Content Styles are the styles that are applied when viewing Entries in your Library, content pasted with the Rich Text Copy feature, and any Project that is not using an Export Theme with mapped content styles. They are made up of Core Loopio Styles, and new Styles that can be added to any Style Category, except the Project Styles.

The Style Categories include:

• Character Styles: Character styles can be used to change the formatting of individual words in a paragraph. A common use case for this Style Category includes creating an Emphasis Style for use inline.
  
  The Core Loopio Style in this category is Highlighted Text.
• Paragraph Styles: Paragraph Styles make up the styling for an entire paragraph. Applying this kind of Style to any words within a paragraph will shift the Style of the entire paragraph. This Category is often used for text that should be uniform, including Headings.
  
  The Core Loopio Styles  in this Category include Normal Body Text and Answer Headings 1 - 5.

Can I Enter RGB Colors Into My Default Content Styles?

Yes, you can load your brand colors into Loopio as RGB Code, as well as Hex Color Code. This allows you to maintain brand consistency, saving you time and keeping your Final Project Export on-brand.

Type the RGB Code ("RGB(x,x,x)") or the Hex Color Code into the Font Color field. Any RGB code will automatically update to the appropriate Hex Color Code.

If you are not aware of your brand RGB Code or Hex Color Code, you can choose a color using the color picker.
