About This Feature

Overview

Theme is a dashboard styling feature in WPS for Windows. It helps you unify dashboard colors, background images, and the overall visual appearance.

Core tasks include:

  • Switch dashboard themes: choose a preset theme style for the current dashboard.
  • Change theme colors: select a different color scheme or follow the theme background.
  • Change theme images: choose a preset background image.
  • Use a custom theme image: upload a JPG or PNG image as the dashboard background, up to 20 MB.

This feature is useful for business dashboards, presentation-ready views, and team-wide visual consistency. It helps reduce repeated style adjustments and keeps dashboard components visually consistent. A practical advantage is that theme, color, image, and custom image options are grouped in one panel for faster editing.
