About Themes

Use Themes to define a settings for different elements on a Dashboard, Form, Action Catalog, or Portal site, such as Dashboard background color, Form Control text colors, and Portal banner colors.

When a Theme is applied to a Dashboard, Form, Action Catalog, or Portal site, all applicable elements inherit those properties.

Each user also has a default Dashboard Theme (for more information, see Dashboard Themes). The default Dashboard Theme is initially selected in CSM Administrator, either:

globally (for more information, see Select Default Global Dashboards and Dashboard Themes),
or by role (for more information, see Select Default Role Dashboards and Dashboard Themes).

If users have security rights, they can select default user Dashboards and Dashboard Themes in the CSM Desktop Client. A Dashboard can also be defined to use its own Theme. For more information, see:

CSM provides several OOTB Themes. Use these OOTB Themes as-is, edit them, or create them using the Theme Manager and the Theme Editor.
