The SAS Theme Designer 3.2 for Flex
enables you to easily customize the appearance of SAS Web applications
that are displayed with the Adobe Flash player. The SAS Theme Designer 3.2 for Flex
is, itself, a Flex Web application. You use SAS Theme Designer 3.2 for Flex
to create and deploy simple, visually appealing, customized themes.
A theme defines the overall look and feel
of an application. It is designed using colors and graphics that are
applied to common user interface components and layout containers.
A well-designed theme can create a strong visual identity across a
product or set of products. SAS recognizes that you might not want
to view your SAS applications in the default corporate theme. You
might instead want to apply your own branding and customization to
help the SAS applications fit in with the rest of your software environment.
SAS also recognizes that users at your site often use more than one
SAS application in their daily work. Having a consistent look and
feel ensures that the user’s transition from one application
to the next is as seamless as possible.
The SAS Theme Designer 3.2 for Flex
affects only applications that use release 2.4 (or later) of SAS Application
Themes for Flex. The work that you do in the SAS Theme Designer 3.2 for Flex
has no effect on Web applications that are not Flex applications (for
example, SAS Web Report Studio 4.3).
Note: See the
SAS Intelligence
Platform: Web Application Administration Guide for information
about themes for other types of Web applications.
