If you were to click Preset 1 at this point you would see those 4 or 5 text colours values change.

Presets and templates are mutually exclusive. You can use a Preset you've created for ANY template. It's just for show & tell it was less obtrusive to create the overrides that utilized the respective Presets. - Last Edit: 10 years 8 months ago by DanG.

If I understand you correctly what I'm trying to do should work... I should be able to create presets that save my style values... if you look at your presets for example you'll notice that the style values don't change, it's only in the overrides that you created that the values are stored...
So, I made a video!
rb30.info/tempvideo/gantry-presets.mp4
In the video you'll see me save a new preset, please note the Text Color values. I then click a pre-defined Hadron Preset to load new Text Colors, Accent Colors, and Background Colors... I change the accent colors and save it as another new preset... when I toggle back to the first new Preset I saved the Accent Colors and Background Colors changed to values I previously saved but the Text Color values are now the new values that I toggled to... I do this a 3rd time and all 3 presets have the same Text Color values where the first 2 presets should have different values - Last Edit: 10 years 8 months ago by Matt.

Okay try this Open up the Default-MASTER template -> make your text colour changes -> Save as Preset-Light -> then EXIT the template screen without saving.
Open up the Default-MASTER template -> make your text colour changes -> Save as Preset-Dark -> then EXIT the template screen without saving.
Now test your Presets.

I don't know if this is a bug or a design decision, I'll ask the devs in the morning. Thanks for showing such patience in this topicThis image is hidden for guests.

Okay so the devs are working on it now and we're all a little surprised how this one slipped by us. An update should be out shortly ->
http://www.rockettheme.com/product-updates
In the interim our SuperDev Kevin has guided me to a fix for this issue. I've attached 2 zip files. Step by step:
- backup ..\templates\rt_hadron -> gantry-config.php & template-options.xml
- backup ..\templates\rt_hadron\features -> styledeclaration.php
- extract out from gantry-config_template-options.zip the 2 files to -> ..\templates\rt_hadron
- extract out from styledeclaration.zip the file to -> ..\templates\rt_hadron\features
Now your text-color presets will workThis image is hidden for guests.

sa'weet!
and just to be sure, after doing this, will I be able to update gantry/hadron as normal after this or will I need to restore my backed-up versions of these files prior to proceeding with the normal uprade path.
