Customizable Icon Colors
iRaceDeck lets you customize the colors of every icon on your Stream Deck. Change backgrounds, text colors, and graphic elements to match your preferences or improve visibility.
Color Slots
Section titled “Color Slots”Each icon supports up to four customizable color slots:
| Slot | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Background | The button background color |
| Text | Label text below the icon |
| Graphic 1 | Primary artwork (arrows, outlines, shapes) |
| Graphic 2 | Secondary element (e.g., chat bubble fill) |
Not all icons support all slots. Icons with complex or data-driven artwork (like Black Box displays) only expose Background and Text.
Semantic colors are never affected — green (good), red (alert), yellow (current value), and blue (cold) always keep their meaning regardless of your color choices.
Global Colors
Section titled “Global Colors”Set default colors for all icons at once through Global Settings, available in the Property Inspector of any iRaceDeck action.
- Open the Property Inspector for any action
- Expand Global Settings at the bottom
- Find the Icon Colors section
- Use the preset buttons or pick individual colors
Presets
Section titled “Presets”- Default — removes all global color overrides, each icon uses its original category color
- White — white background with black text and graphics
- Black — black background with white text and graphics
Per-Button Overrides
Section titled “Per-Button Overrides”Override colors on individual buttons through Color Overrides, available in the Property Inspector between the action settings and Global Settings.
- Open the Property Inspector for the action you want to customize
- Expand Color Overrides
- Use the preset buttons or pick individual colors
Per-button overrides take priority over global colors. Use the Default preset to clear overrides and fall back to global colors.
How Colors Resolve
Section titled “How Colors Resolve”When rendering an icon, colors are resolved through a priority chain:
- Per-button override (if set) — highest priority
- Global color (if set) — applies to all icons
- Icon default — the original color designed for that action category
