A template theme can determine the colors used in the report, such as the background color for column headers or data rows, the font used for specific report items, the spacing between rows, the styles of borders, text alignment, and more. Themes are optional. A template can include multiple themes to provide users with different style options for a report. Report Studio provides predefined themes you can use to customize the appearance of your BIRT design.
How to modify a theme
