You can save all your formatting and functionality changes in a custom theme. This is where you can upload and download themes specifically designed for the date picker.
NOTE
You can only use themes generated in the date picker to upload.
Open theme > select Custom tab.
Here, you will see a custom color scheme with green, red, and blue colors.
Open theme> Click on the Edit (✎) icon from the built-in theme.
In this view, the custom tab will show the same colors used in that theme.
There are two ways to use a custom theme:
Using global styling helps keep a consistent style guide while allowing for specific changes to colors and fonts. For instance, if the user wants to change the font from "Segoe UI" to "Georgia". It is possible to do it all at once using global styling.
The full customization view refers to a theme that is fully customized, with different colors, font families, and functions for all components. This view is ideal if you want to create your own unique style from scratch.
After changing the formatting in other options, when the user re-opens the custom theme option, there is a prompt saying,
“New custom theme created based on selections made to fonts, colors, and functions.”
If you have accidentally changed the color and font family and want to switch back to a consistent style, select the “RESET TO DEFAULT” button. This will revert the theme to the last applied theme.
Once you're happy with the template you've created, you can save it and use it in other reports or share with someone else. To download a theme, go to custom tab and follow these steps:
Rename the template name
Click on the download icon.
You will see a JSON code for your theme. If you want to make any changes, you cannot directly edit the code in the text box. Instead, modify the settings and generate the code again.
When you're ready, click on the "Copy JSON" button. This will copy the entire code to your clipboard.
Paste this code into an text editor or create a new text file. Save the file name with an extension of ".JSON". The file will look like below image:

This mode remains unaffected by any functionality changes, such as disabling presets or selecting a single-month calendar.
