11.2.4.1 About Switching the Active Theme
Switching to another theme, assigns all components with assigned templates to corresponding templates in the new theme.
App Builder accomplishes template mapping through the assignment of template class identifiers.
When switching an active theme, remember:
-
You can only switch to a theme if the theme exists. For example, before you can switch to a theme available in the repository, you must first create it. See "Accessing New Themes".
-
If the wizard locates multiple matches (that is, when several templates share the same template type and templates class), the wizard defaults to a template matching type, class, and name. If no match is found, you must select another template with the same type and class.
-
If no matching template is found (that is, no template with the same type and class exists) then you are prompted to select a template with the same type but with a different class. Then, a warning displays explaining this issue might lead to problems with page functionality, or issues with the page display. When no template of the same template type exists, then the theme cannot be switched. You are blocked from switching themes.
