Theme Manager

The theme manager allows you to view, select, edit, create or apply a theme profile. Theme profiles contain parameters that you can change to enhance the look and feel of the application but do note that in some cases the application may disable a part of or the entire theme because it is either not feasible for the smart device to implement it (such as if your smart device is running low on memory) or when using the theme would obscure a control or an application function.

Controls

  1. Refresh – Performs a reload of all theme profiles in the theme database. You can press this button if you have performed a search and wish to clear the search results
  2. Load – Sets the selected theme profile to be used as the application’s current theme.
  3. Search – Looks for a theme profile within the theme database using the theme profiles title as an attribute.
  4. Order – Allows for the current list of theme profiles to be sorted by title, date of creation or date of modification in either ascending or descending order.
  5. New – Accesses the Theme Editor to create a new theme profile.
  6. Update Selected – Accesses the Theme Editor to edit a selected theme profile.
  7. Manage Fonts – Accesses the Font Manager to add, edit or remove a font from the application’s font database.

*If your smart device is using an Android version that is 10 (Android Q) or greater then exportation of theme files will only include the basic attributes like colour, animation and size but will exclude any wallpaper images or font files. This is because the most recent versions of Android have stricter rules that limit applications to engage in file creation and as a result you must either re-reference it once the theme file imported or if the theme file is to be imported on another device then copy these files manually and then re-reference it once imported. If you are using an older version of Android then there is still a potential for the aforementioned files to be left out. This is because the app can't access the database that allows for files to be copied and as such the app may fail to export said files.
