Designing themes

Themes are stored at the account level. You can share themes across users and spaces in the same account. You set colors and fonts for various dashboard elements at different levels.

Each Visualizer chart has a palette setting for its graphic elements such as lines and points.

When you bring charts together on a dashboard, set the overall theme as described in this topic.

Each dashlet has color properties that can override the theme properties.

Here are a few basic guidelines for working with themes:
  • Obtain the hex color values of your corporate color standards for use in themes.
  • Apply a neutral color to backgrounds so that the color does not detract from the charts.
  • Avoid areas of "loud" colors that distract from the information you want to highlight in reports.
  • Choose colors that match the selected color palette in Visualizer.
