The Branding page allows you to tailor the visual identity of the StrataMax Portal for each office (BCMax drive) with custom branding elements. By default, the StrataMax logo and colour scheme are applied, and the user can personalise this. This article outlines how to add, edit, and delete branding, as well as customise visual elements such as logos, background images, and colour themes.
These instructions apply to the StrataMax Portal release planned for 12th January.

Colour Management

When defining branding, set a ‘Base Colour’. When this is done, the colour selections for the following fields will be defaulted to the selected Base Colour:
- The ‘Page Titlebar Colour’
- The ‘Header Colour’
- The ‘Menu Colour’
- The ‘Logo Background Colour’
The following areas can be easily customised, and if preferred, saved along the way:
- Base Colour
- Page Titlebar Colour
- Header Colour
- Menu Colour
- Logo Background Colour
To override the default colour in any Colour Field, the user should:
- Check the checkbox next to the relevant colour field.
- Click the colour box, generating the colour selector tool.
- Using the up / down toggle select colour code type, or use the eyedropper to select custom colour:

- Enter the HEX colour code in the field provided, or
- Enter the RGB colour code in the fields provided, or
- Enter the HSL values, or
- Drag the colour picker (eye dropper icon) to the correct colour. The colour picker can be used to select colour from other viewable sources, i.e. Marketing information, Websites, colour charts etc (click Esc to exit the colour picker).
The colour code then populates in the '#' box, providing easy reference for further colour field changes requiring the same colour if applicable.

Once the ‘Base Colour’ is set, the user can opt to customise other colour fields:
The ‘Page Titlebar Colour’ checkbox will be displayed in the ‘Custom Colours’ section, and will default to White. The user can override the colour of the Page Titlebar by checking the ‘Use Custom Page Titlebar’ checkbox, checking the ‘Page Titlebar Colour’, and changing the default colour using the steps above.
When the ‘Use Custom Page Titlebar’ (under Page Titlebar) is checked, and you wish to use the ‘Use Gray Bar' separator field:
- The ‘Use Gray Bar' separator (under Page Titlebar)’ checkbox will be displayed and unchecked by default. This field can be used to indicate whether the user wants a grey separator bar to be displayed between the Page Titlebar and the Page Actions, as shown below.


- The ‘Header Colour’ will default to the colour selected in the ‘Base Colour’ field. The user can override the colour of the Headers by using the steps shown above.
- The ‘Menu Colour’ will default to the colour selected in the ‘Base Colour’ field. The user can override the colour of Menu selections by using the steps shown above.
- The ‘Logo Background Colour’ will default to the colour selected in the ‘Page Titlebar Colour’ field. The user can override the colour of the Logo Background using the steps shown above.
Once colour changes are complete, click on the Save button.
Note:
When the checkbox next to any of the colour parameters are unchecked and/or the Logo or Background image is removed from the applicable field, the default StrataMax branding will be applied.
