Custom color palette
I tried to follow these steps to create a custom color palette, but it did't pick up any change in colors. The color theme is available in the app options. I'm not sure if i have the correct contents in the json file or just an Qlik version that doesn't support it.
I'm using Qlik Sense 13.9.1 (about a year behind now)
The associated files are below. I have only changed the first 7 colors, everything else should be the same as the files in the examples.
Can anyone help me?
custom-theme.qext
{
"name": "Custom theme",
"description": "Custom theme",
"type": "theme",
"version": "1.0.0",
"author": "Qlik"

theme.json:

"_inherit": true,
"_variables" : {
"@greenColor" : "#61a729",
"@text": "#4c4c4c"
},
"color": "@text",
"fontSize": "12px",
"object" : {
"title": {
"main": {
"fontSize" : "16px"

Hi,
If you use a page to validate JSON, like https://jsonlint.com/, you will notice that the row above palettes you are missing a ",".
"dataColors": {
"primaryColor": "@greenColor"
}
"palettes" : {
should be
"dataColors": {
"primaryColor": "@greenColor"
},
"palettes" : {
Try to change that and let me know how it goes.
Regards,
Patrik.
