Step 1: Insert ShortPoint Divider Design Element
You can select the Divider design element from ShortPoint Page Builder.
In Modern page:
Edit your page, insert a SharePoint web part, and select the ShortPoint application. Delete the information window and hit the plus sign to go to Page Builder.
In Classic Page:
While in edit mode, go to the Insert tab, and click the plus sign under the ShortPoint section in the ribbon.
Choose Divider from the design element options in Page Builder.
Step 2: Select a divider Style
You will be brought to the Divider Settings tab where you can choose a divider Style from the drop-down. Click Insert once done.
Note: Not all divider style options in the drop-down allow color change through custom CSS.
Step 3: Copy CSS Code
This is the CSS code that you will use for changing the divider color. Copy it before moving to the next step.
.shortpoint-divider {
border-top-color: color !important;
}
Where the text color can be any color entered as:
- Text representing an actual color i.e. red, blue, green, etc.
- rgb(red#,green#,blue#) for RGB code i.e. rgb(255,0,0), rgb(0,0,255), rgb(0,128,0), etc.
- Or simply, #XXXXXX for Hex code i.e. #FF0000, #0000FF, #008000, etc.
Here is the CSS code that we will be using in our example:
.shortpoint-divider {
border-top-color: blue !important;
}
Step 4: Edit Row Settings and paste custom CSS code
On your Row element, click the settings cogwheel. This will pull up the Row Settings. Go to the Custom CSS tab, paste the custom CSS code, and hit Update.
Step 5: Save and Publish your page
Finally, hit Save and Publish your page with the changes. Your divider will now be in the color you indicated in the CSS code.
You are done! Make your page look great with the use of dividers.
