The Theme tab within each variant allows you to control the visual style of your flow. From here, you can define or override your design system to ensure a consistent, branded experience for responders.
Formsort provides a set of prebuilt starter themes that you’ll encounter when creating a new flow. These base themes serve as a great foundation for building and customizing your own themes.
Styling is customized in the Theme tab, and edits don't change the base theme directly. Instead, you’re applying variant-specific overrides on top of the base theme. This allows for design flexibility across variants without affecting the core styling used elsewhere.
Publish a New Base Theme
Once you’ve finalized styling in the Theme tab, you can save your changes as a new base theme:
Click in the Gear wheel in the corner of the toolbar.
Select Save a copy to workspace.
Enter a New Theme Label
Click Save.
Update an Existing Theme
Once a new workspace Theme has been saved, you can publish updates to it by:
Clicking the Gear wheel in the corner of the toolbar.
Select Publish new version of theme.
Your updated theme will then be available for use across other flows and variants in your workspace.
To change the base theme of a variant:
Navigate to the Theme tab.
Click the Theme name in right corner of the toolbar.
Choose from your existing base themes or one of Formsort’s starter themes.
Since each variant can include local styling changes on top of the base theme, you may want to revert or remove these overrides.
To reset to a clean version of your base theme:
Open the Switch theme menu.
Select the base theme you'd like to use (this can be the same one currently applied).
Enable the Remove local styles option.
Click Switch.
This will discard any variant-specific styling changes and return the flow to the default look of the selected base theme.
The base theme will remain unchanged unless you explicitly a new version of it.
