WebPortal CSS issue - Cancel button style cannot be changed

Hi KNIME Team,

I´m facing issues while applying my own css style to the WebPortal.

The bachground color of the Cancel button cannot be changed and it is by default transparent, becouse of that I cannot apply my style as per I would like to use white text, please see below:

why the CSS that applies for the Next button does not apply for the Cancel button?

is there a way to apply format to this button?

is it possible for you to add this color as a variable so that we can modify it in the CSS file?

or is there another way to do that?

Hi Marc,

apologies for the delayed response.
I am currently having a look at this and will get back to you shortly.

Hi @MarcEM , you can overwrite the css via the CSS Editor node

You can check out these threads for examples:

Hi Bruno,

this is not a solution, I need to change the CSS from the WebPortal and not from a specific Application in the WebPortal.

Hi @MarcEM , sorry I misunderstood your issue.

Hi Bruno,

no worries :slight_smile:

Hi @MarcEM,

it looks that it is currently not possible to do this easily.
I’ve created a ticket to expose these styles as easy-to-use parameters.

Hi @MarcEM,

Unfortunately, this is still in the backlog but I will discuss it with the developers.

Hi Julian,

Thank you for your quick reply.

However, I do not understand why this is so difficult, it is just to assign a variable to the Cancel button, same as you have for the other objects.

any news by when this could be available?

Hi @MarcEM ,

We are currently working on a new UI for web portal and changes to cancel button is not easy as it would potentially affect all of the front end projects. However these issues are recorded internally and will be fixed in the New UI release cycle.
