Screens

Project themes are a set of visual attributes that are applied to all of the screens in your install to give them a uniform look and feel. These attributes include the color, banner styles, images, text fonts and many more. Using a project theme provides a visual consistency throughout your install. These themes are stored globally and can be used for all of your projects.

Tip: Themes are very much like "skins" for your setup. If you'd like to create your own themes, see Screen Dimensions and How Screens Are Drawn for some useful information.

Tip: Themes can also be stored externally such as on a network drive allowing you to share themes between products and developers. See the Additional themes folder preference for further information.

Preview

An image preview of an example screen given the selected project theme. This theme will be applied to all screens in your project unless it is overridden on a per screen basis using the Override project theme option on the Style tab of each screen's properties.

Preview banner style:

The banner style you want to use in the screen preview.

Top

Show a top banner when previewing a screen.

Side

Show a side banner when previewing a screen.

None

Don't show any banner when previewing a screen.

Project theme:

The current project theme that will be applied to your project screens. You can click the select button to select a different project theme.

Save As

Save the selected project theme under the specified name.

Note: Saved themes will be stored in a "Themes" folder located in the all user profile of Application Data. For example: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\IndigoRose\Setup Factory\9.0\Themes

Edit

Opens the Theme Properties dialog where you can edit the properties of the selected project theme.

Note: You cannot edit the default Setup Factory theme. You must first save the theme under a different name in order to edit its properties.

Remove

Remove the currently selected theme from the global list. Removing a theme means it will no longer be available to any project, so caution should be taken.

Note: You cannot remove the default Setup Factory themes.
