Summary

The Themes feature in VividCharts allows builders to quickly and consistently apply a predefined visual style to all slides and charts within a report. This eliminates the need to manually restyle individual elements when branding or design requirements change.

Capabilities

  • Access themes provided by your VividCharts Admin directly in the editor.

  • Preview a theme's settings before applying it to see how it affects your report.

  • Apply a theme to update the appearance of all charts and slides in a report.

  • Automatically override existing individual style settings with the theme’s configuration (e.g., font, title size, background color, chart palette).

Benefits

  • Saves time by avoiding repetitive manual styling on each chart or slide.

  • Ensures consistency across all visualizations in a report.

  • Enforces brand guidelines with one-click theme application.

  • Improves collaboration by standardizing visuals across different builders within an organization.

  • Simplifies updates when stakeholders request design changes—just apply a new theme.

If you’re a builder, look for the Themes icon in the top-left corner of your editor to get started! Just remember: applying a theme will override any existing styles.
