   • On the Menu tab, define the attributes of the side menu.

     By default, the color of the menu background is computed based on the background color. To use a custom color, unselect the compute check box.

   • On the Layout tab, define the margins of the layout components used in to-do and document definitions.
   • On the Logo tab, upload the logo and define its properties.
   • You can reset the theme to the default state with the Reset button.

4. Click the Preview changes button to preview the theme.

   Note that the theme preview is applied only to the Dynamic Themes view and is dropped when you leave the page. However, the page retains the most recent theme settings.
