Summary

The Add Styles feature in VividCharts allows VC Admin users to define specific visual styles—like colors, fonts, and alignment—for different elements within a theme. This enables consistent, customized styling across all visualizations in a report without needing to manually adjust each chart.

Feature Capabilities

  • Create new themes with custom visual styles.

  • Add custom style options to target specific chart elements (e.g., title background, title color, alignment).

  • Use a variety of style types including:

    • Single color pickers for backgrounds or text

    • Alignment options (left, center, right)

    • Font styles and sizes

    • etc..

  • Define paths to apply each style correctly within the chart structure.

Benefits of Using This Feature

  • Saves Time: Apply detailed, consistent styles across charts without repetitive manual styling.

  • Improves Visual Consistency: Themes ensure uniform branding and formatting across reports.

  • Flexible Customization: Fine-tune the appearance of specific chart elements like titles or backgrounds.

  • Reusable Themes: Once created, a custom theme can be applied to multiple charts and reports.

  • Scalable Styling: Ideal for large-scale reporting environments where manual edits would be impractical.
