The HelpBar picks up colors from your interface and you can easily adjust those further. You can also adjust the styling of your Smart Widget (the UI element that launches your HelpBar) with Custom CSS to ensure it stands out to users.

List of HelpBar Widget selectors

Below are the classes you can target with Custom CSS from the HelpBar 'Smart Widget'.

chmln-helpbar-widget__key (used by the squares of the cmd/K keys)
