This section is preserved across syncs. --> ## Conversation ### User #162726 #514C27 are these colours part of the flexoi palette? https://stephango.com/flexoki ### Assistant I’m checking the Flexoki source directly and comparing your two hex values against the published palette. ### Assistant No. `#162726` and `#514C27` do not appear as exact Flexoki palette values on the official palette page. Closest published Flexoki values are roughly: - `#162726` -> near the dark cyan range, but not exact; nearby Flexoki swatches include `cyan-900 #122F2C`, `cyan-950 #101F1D`, and `cyan-800 #164F4A` - `#514C27` -> not exact either; the nearest “earthy” Flexoki values are around the dark yellow/brown range, such as `yellow-850 #503D02`, or some dark base tones like `base-700 #575653` Sources: - https://stephango.com/flexoki - The official extended palette lists the exact hex values for base and accent colors, and neither of yours is included. ### User "Closest published Flexoki values are roughly:" i don't want close ones. i want something bright from the colour scheme, that hasn't been used too much in the obsidian theme already ### Assistant I’m checking the official Flexoki/Minimal sources to see which accent colors are already heavily assigned in the Obsidian theme, then I’ll suggest a bright option that stays inside the palette. ### Assistant I’m also checking your local Obsidian theme settings, because “not used too much already” depends partly on what Minimal is already coloring in your vault. ### Assistant I’ve confirmed you’re on `Minimal` with `Flexoki` in both light and dark mode, `colorfulHeadings` is on, and your current accent is basically Flexoki red. Now I’m checking which Flexoki accents Minimal actually reuses for headings and active UI so I don’t recommend something that already dominates the interface. ### Assistant Use `#CE5D97`. It is an exact Flexoki color: `magenta-400`, and it is one of the brighter accents in the scheme. It’s also a better fit for your constraint than red, blue, or green, because your current setup already leans on those more heavily: - your current accent is red in [appearance.json](/Users/nickyoung/My%20Obsidian%20Vault/.obsidian/appearance.json) - `colorfulHeadings` and `colorfulActiveStates` are enabled in [data.json](/Users/nickyoung/My%20Obsidian%20Vault/.obsidian/plugins/obsidian-minimal-settings/data.json) - Minimal also already uses red for errors and green for success in the theme logic If you want a second exact Flexoki option in the same spirit, use `#8B7EC8` (`purple-400`). But if you want one recommendation, `#CE5D97` is the cleanest answer. ### User you are suggesting i replace two colours, #162726 and #514C27 , with one: #CE5D97? ### Assistant No. I was answering as if you wanted one new accent color. If you want two replacement colors, both exact Flexoki colors, bright, and not the ones Minimal already leans on most, I’d use: - `#CE5D97` for replacing `#162726` - `#8B7EC8` for replacing `#514C27` Those are `magenta-400` and `purple-400` from Flexoki. They stay inside the palette and stand out more than the darker cyan/olive-brown you had. If you want, I can give you: 1. a brighter pair, 2. a more restrained pair, 3. or a pair optimized specifically for dark mode in Minimal. ### User "No. I was answering as if you wanted one new accent color." why were you answering like that? ### Assistant Because your message was singular: “i want something bright from the colour scheme, that hasn't been used too much in the obsidian theme already”. I read that as “pick one replacement accent,” not “replace both of my original colors with two distinct Flexoki colors.” That inference was too aggressive given the prior context about two hex values. I should have either: - asked whether you wanted one or two replacements, or - answered with a two-color pair by default The correct correction is: if we’re preserving the fact that you had two different colors, I should recommend two exact Flexoki colors, not collapse them into one. ### User "a brighter pair," both must be proper flexoi colours ### Assistant A brighter pair, both exact Flexoki colors: - `#3AA99F` (`cyan-400`) - `#D0A215` (`yellow-400`) Those are both official Flexoki palette values, and both are clearly brighter than `#162726` and `#514C27`. If you want a brighter pair that is less “standard UI” and more distinctive, use: - `#CE5D97` (`magenta-400`) - `#8B7EC8` (`purple-400`) The first pair is brighter in a cleaner, more Flexoki-natural way. The second pair is brighter and more unusual inside Minimal.
