Branding package - Set different colors btwn Home bar background and report folder background

Hi - I have a couple of questions about colors.json xml:

 

1. NeutralPrimary updates the background of the Home bar row and the report folder background.  In that hte color you specify here applies to both.  How can i make these two areas different colors, if possible.

2.  I've played around with trying to figure this out but would someone please tell me what secondaryAlt3 and neutralSecondaryAlt3 do?

 

Thanks You!

This is the best documentation I have been able to locate https://craigporteous.com/2016/05/ssrs-2016-brand-package-breakdown/

 

Also see this thread from the forum as it provides a lot information about the branding files and how there are issues/bugs with it's implementation in PBI Report Server.

The article is great. Thank you.  It's wierd though b/c I changed both secondaryAlt3 and neutralsecondaryalt3 to f90404 (red) but the folder count (i.e. "(9)" in your example) doesn't change.  Thoughts?
