The length of the color list in settings menu is limited by the screen width. Try replacing already added colors (e.g., the ones you won't be using).

We added the ability to override colorScheme colors to the backlog. This should be available around version 1.22/2.18.

If you just want to change your theme's source color, you can simply add your own to availableColors (https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/blob/ma ... n.md#theme). The Hudiy UI displays a maximum of 8 colors from the list (due to the layout constraint), so it's best to just swap out a color you won't be using with your own color.

Can you detail if this will enable us to choose our own colours for each UI element. Eg eliminating white text on home screen in dark mode. Also when is 2.18 slated for release?

Currently, if you want more extensive color customization, the best approach is to create your own custom element using HTML/JavaScript.

As mentioned, around version 1.22/2.18, we will introduce the ability to override specific colors within the scheme calculated by Material Design (https://github.com/wiboma/hudiy/blob/ma ... eme-object).

This won't allow you to modify the color of every individual element on the interface. Instead, it will let you modify the color of a specific group of elements that share a color from that scheme (e. g. onSurface).

We are currently working on version 1.20/2.16. Releases generally come out on a monthly basis.

Thanks for your response. Can you explain in more detail if this would allow me to change the home screens colours to green
