Style Screen Prompts
Styling a screen prompt in Lesson Builder lets Content Developers and Instructional Designers set the spotlight background, outline, and dialog background for a step, and apply that style across the whole Lesson.
How do you style a prompt for a step?
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Open a step in the Lesson Builder. |
| 2 | Select a Spotlight Background from the dropdown. You can choose a light or dark background. |
| 3 | To add an outline border, check the Spotlight Outline box. You can also set the border width in pixels and choose the color, either by entering a hex code or picking from the color grid. |
| 4 | Select a Dialog Background. You can choose light, dark, or custom. You can also personalize the color of the prompt text. |
| 5 | Select Update to save your changes.

Alt: The General tab of a step in Lesson Builder with the spotlight and dialog styling controls. |
Note: For "no action required" prompts, you can anchor the prompt relative to the viewing window.
How do you apply a prompt style to the whole Lesson?
After you style a prompt on one step, copy its prompt style, then apply it to every step.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | On the lesson steps, select the context menu (the three dots) in the top right. |
| 2 | Select Step Actions. |
| 3 | Select Paste Prompt Styles to Steps. |
