Dashboard Themes
Use Themes to define colors, fonts, images, and styles for the different elements on a Dashboard (example: Dashboard background color, colors for charts and gauges, alert colors, label fonts, etc.). For a detailed list of Dashboard-specific Theme properties, see Dashboard Theme Properties.
Note: Widgets significantly vary by
type, so
Theme properties and how they can be applied also vary significantly (example:
Image Widgets do not have text).
A Theme is selected as part of a Dashboard's Display properties.
If configured, a Dashboard Theme can be overridden by a:
- Widget Theme: Chart, Gauge, and Matrix Widgets can have their own colors and styles and can be configured to override the Dashboard Theme. Gauge Threshold colors can also override Theme Alert colors.
- Global Dashboard Theme: The default Dashboard Theme selected for the entire system.
- Role Dashboard Theme: The default Dashboard Theme selected for a Role.
- User Dashboard Theme: The Theme selected by the User.
- View Theme: A system administrator, or anyone with rights, has the ability to set a Theme for each View, which essentially resets the default Global Theme.
