Why can't I use dark colours for basic shapes?

I’m having trouble with making basic shapes into darker colors. Is this not a feature? A basic color scheme in the darker palette? That seems pretty weird and unreasonable.

Or am I crazy and somehow blind, where I can’t see where to make the colors darker? Whenever I move the colors on the HEX scale to somewhere darker, the basic shape becomes lighter. The best I can do is a grey-ish color scheme, which isn’t the goal.

I’m doing a creative website with some darker colors on some of the pages, so this not being a feature is a turn-off for me.

This sounds strange! Is this a shape provided by Wix, or a custom shape you’ve uploaded? Any CSS?

Hi! Thanks for replying.

I am not using any CSS as I do not know any code… This applies to everything I use actually! But since I’m using a lot of my own images and art, they don’t need much tweaking on-site. It’s the basic shapes available through Wix that are the ones proving to be quite a pain sadly.

Can you share a link to the site?

Sorry but it’s not published so I don’t know if I can send a link for it?
