Dashboard Theme and Background

The default visual style for runtime widgets and controls is defined by the currently applied Theme.

*This Theme is a Layout property and will only apply to the current Layout of the Dashboard (and all its contained Widgets).

Selecting a Theme

Use the theme Selector in the Layout properties :

Background Settings

The background settings are inherited from the currently selected Theme.
This can be overridden by using the Background button in the Layout properties :

*Note : since 2020 R2, these Background options are configured separately for each view : Desktop, Mobile, Pdf Export.

Inherit from theme (default)

The background style is defined by the currently selected Theme.

Un-select this option to allow to customize the following options.

Custom Color

The Background Color can be configured manually using a color picker :

Image file

Instead of a plain background color, you can use an image as background.
Click on the pen icon to select a file.

*The maximum size accepted is 1.00Mb
Supported formats are : *.png, *.jpg, *.bmp, *.jpeg, *.gif, *.emf, *.tiff, *.tif, *.ico

Transparent Widgets

Even when configuring a different background color for the dashboard canvas, the Widgets’ background is still inherited from the Theme.
This is in order to maximize readability.

However, you may select Transparent Widgets to use the custom background (color or image) as widget background too :
