Robohelp 2022 - I need to delete the tile images so we can replace with a different image or at the very leaset, just set a background color for the tiles to get an idea of what we want to do, but I have deleted the tile images for both Blue Lagoon and Oceanic frameless templates, and nothing changes. They stay exactly same as they were before I deleted the picture. To do this I'm going to the Oceanic Template editor and I click on Home Page/TOC Tiles/Image Box and remove toc_default_tile.svg from Image Path. When I do that, nothing happens. When that didn't work, I tried to add a background color (gold) but still nothing happened.
Also, while I'm at it, I have no idea when it happened, but if you look at the last screenshot it shows my search box is now sitting on top of the caption "How Can We Help" on the HomePage. I've tried many things to get it to move with no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
How do I make this happen. I've added some screenshots below where you can see that I’ve removed the image in both templates – yet the tiles don’t change.

I got the search box issue resolved. I don't even begin to understand what is going on with skin editor. I make one change and something disappears in the opposite side of the page? What is happening? Buttons will just disappear and then I have to regenerate and view to see what the output will look like. One time the change I make won't affect anything and the next time I change it something disappears. Nightmare.

While I haven't used New UI in production, in my testing I've always found the preview flaky.
I prefer to use a special project that only contains a sample topic or two and the skin, and make all my changes there, so I can generate to check the output quickly.

Another trick is to make a change, close the skin and re-open it. Sometimes that can force the preview to refresh.

Thanks. Yeah, I've done all of that. I was just hoping that it was me doing something wrong (although I know at this piont I'm not). I pretty much have lived inside the template editor today and it's been less than fun. I just don't understand how that flies. But, at least I've learned a lot. I have a demo I have to give at 10:00am tomorrow (it's 1:30am my time). I've still got to figure out how to change the tiles before I can lay down for a couple hours. Tomorrow is going to suck......

It seems like you are just deleting the default image and then expecting there to be nothing. I haven't tested recently but I believe you have to replace the image with the one you want. There has to be an image and if you don't define one, the default will come back in.
