23. Report and Dashboard Design Principles

23.4 Themes

A theme applies colours, fonts and visual defaults to the whole report.

  • View › Themes – choose a built-in theme.
  • Customize current theme – set theme colours, text styles (titles, cards, labels), visual defaults, page background.
  • Save current theme – exports a JSON file that you can reuse in other reports so all company reports look consistent.
  • Browse for themes – import a JSON theme file (e.g. company branding).

A minimal theme JSON looks like this:

{
  "name": "Quick Commerce Theme",
  "dataColors": ["#F2C811", "#252423", "#118DFF", "#E66C37", "#6B007B", "#744EC2"],
  "background": "#FFFFFF",
  "foreground": "#252423",
  "tableAccent": "#F2C811"
}

Ravindra Bagale's Tip

Mitrano, khup students change fonts and colours visual by visual instead of using a theme, and the report looks inconsistent. Start with a theme (built-in or JSON) and adjust it once. Then every new visual follows it automatically. Ekdum simple aahe, fakt savay lavun ghya.
