Canvas App - Global theming

[Anonymous]

Hi all, 

I'm a designer working on custom styling for a brand. Is there a way yet to create a custom theme (colours, padding, fonts, components) using variables or otherwise.

Would love to hear from anyone who has done this if it is not included at the moment!

Thank you thank you!

Hi, yes, you can create a custom theme by setting a variable on the app start and then referring to the variable for the property you want to change. Something like

Set(Var_Settings,{Font_Color:Red, Font_Background_Fill: Blue, etc.etc.})

then change the property where you want to use it, for example button fill, just add Font_Background_Fill

you can also use inline css with the html text element

Thanks so much! I will give this a go!

Hi,

Just going to add here that you can use this template which allows you to set defaults for all of the controls, then when you insert any new controls these will be used by default:
