Re: BUG: I can't assign different theme to different build

Unfortunately you cannot have a different layout for each build (e.g. Classic, Modern, Grapphite, etc), but you can have different themes for each build (e.g. Grapphite - Sweet Red, Grapphite - Deep Sea, etc.)

Re: BUG: I can't assign different theme to different build

Hello Alex,
I try it for Classic too.Bu if it work as you described it is bug*bug or not full implemented feature that must disabled or marked with "big hint".
I'm not sure what you mean, the current functionality is:
Classic, Modern, Grapphite, etc. are defined as layouts and cannot be configured to be different for each build.
Classic - style1, Classic - style2, Grapphite - Sweet Red, Grapphite - Deep Sea, etc. are defined as themes (or layout variations) and can be configured to be different for each build.

Can you please give us more details as what you consider being a bug? If not a bug then perhaps an improvement suggestion?

All the best,
Mihai

Re: BUG: I can't assign different theme to different build

On the page theme you can choose Theme (Air, Azure, Moder etc.) and as child "Theme style" (default, style2blue, style3blue etc.).
I swithed "Theme style" and then switch to an other build and immediatly was back.
My selection was reset. So it is definitely the bug (selection is lost when build switched).

Re: BUG: I can't assign different theme to different build

Hello Alex,

That's no bug. As I mentioned in my previous post, this is the intended behavior. Each build can be configured with a different theme.

Take the following test case for example:
- define two builds "Build 1" and "Build 2" from the Media page
- go to Themes page and select "Build 1" from the Ribbon menu
- double click Classic -> style1 theme or choose "Set as current" from its context menu (notice style1 will become bold in the list)
- select "Build 2" from the Ribbon menu and notice Classic -> default will become bold in the list
- double click Classic -> style2 theme or choose "Set as current" from its context menu (notice style2 will become bold in the list)
- switch between "Build 1" and "Build 2" from the Ribbon menu and notice the themes you previously assigned for each build is kept:
-> when "Build 1" is selected style1 becomes bold in the list
-> when "Build 2" is selected style2 becomes bold in the list

Am I missing something from your description?

All the best,
Mihai

Re: BUG: I can't assign different theme to different build

Hi Mihai,
thank for explanation. It means that must be be used double click not single click for the theme selection.

So we need to create X different user themes because we need picture on the whole window.
