Keynote - Changing chart textures in a custom theme

I know there are a couple different textures for the charts in the regular themes. I have created a custom theme for my company and I would like to be able to change the texture on the charts. But I can't seem to figure out how to choose which texture is used.
Does anyone know how to do that?

Darin, this is covered in the Keynote User Guide (p.179 in the KN3 guide). To quote:
To set default chart attributes:
1 In the slide organizer, create a new slide based on the master slide you are designing.
2 Place a chart on the slide canvas.
3 Select the chart and set its attributes. (For more information, see Chapter 6, “Creating Charts.”)
4 To define defaults for another chart type, copy the chart and paste it on a new slide, change the chart type, and set the chart attributes. Repeat this step for each chart type.
5 When all the charts are formatted as you wish, select each of them, one at a time, and make the new properties the default by doing one of the following:
- To make the chart’s attributes the default for the current master, choose Format > Advanced > Define [chart] for Current Master.
- To make the chart’s attributes the default for all the masters in the current theme, choose Format > Advanced > Define [chart] for All Masters.
- To make the chart’s type the default for all master slides in the current theme, choose Format > Advanced > Make [chart] the Default Chart Type.
6 In the dialog that appears, specify the total number of series for which you are defining attributes.
7 Delete the charts from the slides.

Custom Theme: change resolution graphics problems

Hi
What can i do to make custom themes in a way that i can change the resolution anytime later by using that pulldown menu (e.g. 1024x768 to 800x600) without having problems with the graphics. I can make single themes in the right resolution but how do i tell keynote to use the right one when i want to change resolution? Or must i use only vector graphics?
The problem by change the resolution of my custom themes is that all the graphics move somewhere and everything looks confused. When i go back to the right resolution graphics still stay confused and scaled to small or to big too????

the way to do this properly is to make a theme file for each resolution, and then instead of just using the inspector to change the size, use the theme selector to choose your same theme in the new size. This will reapply the theme properly.

Nokia E72 custom theme problem

well i faced a wierd problem recently ,
i don't like the original theme of the phone so i shearced for a black theme on ovi store and i did find a black theme and installed successfully and i made sure it's 4 e72
so when i'm on business mode i go to themes > general to select it so it works just fine
but when i switch the mode to personal then go to the themes menu it autmatically change my them from black personal to golden business so i reselect black personal again the go back to my business mode > themes menu ( when i click on themes the theme changes to also from my custom theme to original golden business) so i must reselect it again
so it seems that i have to customize only one theme if itry to customize the other it would corrupt
have any one noticed this.

well yes it's me and my current firmware ver is as listed in my sig.is 053.001 of the 26 of nov 2010
and the wallpaper issue of the modes happened after i updated to the new firm ware
it wasn't there when i first bought the phone fw 032**** i cant remember actually
and the firm ware was installed succesfully by me and by nokia care centre as i went 3 times
(i miss my old firmware actually, but unfortunatlly i can't get it any where
[ i also asked nokia care to install my older version but they told me it's no longer available ]
and i haven't restored any system files that would corrupt the software
i use the ovi sync just to sync contacts and calendar and notes
and for the theme issue which i mentioned in that topic it's realy annoying u can`t modify both themes just one theme only
and for ur phone it nokia e73 with different firmware version that does'nt have corruption .
mine 053.001 is a big mistake and i did the biggest mistake for installing it.

I would like to change the colour of bars in a chart without losing the underlying default texture associated with my chosen theme. None of the 3D textured fills offered in "Chart Colors" match the textured fill of the theme. Any suggestions?

I would like to change the colour of bars in a chart without losing the underlying default texture associated with my chosen theme. None of the 3D textured fills offered in "Chart Colors" match the textured fill of the theme. Any suggestions?

Thanks Gary, but no, that does not work. First of all, I can't select each bar individually. When I click on one bar, all three bars are selected.
When I use "inspector > graphic" I have 5 fill options: none, color, gradient, image, tinted image. The default selection for the theme I'm using is image. What I would like to use for my charts is the same image that this theme uses for table headers. It has the same texture as the chart, but a different colour. Using anything but image or tinted image removes the texture from the fill.
I have found I can do one of two things. I can select tinted image from the fill selections in "inspector > graphic" or I can select 2D Image Fills from "inspector > chart > chart colors". The first choice does not allow me to match the table header colour because it only allows me to apply a tint to the existing colour and adjust its opacity. The existing colour has too much influence on the fill, so I can't find an RGB adjustment that will match the table header colour. The image selections from "inspector > chart > chart colors" do not quite match the colour or the texture. Again, I can try to tint the image, but I still can't get it to match and the texture is not the same anyway.
The image I want to use obviously exists in the software as it is an attribute of the theme, but for some reason is inaccessible. The other angle I have tried is to edit the theme, but I can't figure out how to do that either.

How do I change the theme of a custom theme presentation in Keynote?

How do I change the theme of a custom theme presentation in Keynote?
I have a beautiful preso that my designer created. I want to use the copy in those slides with a different theme more conducive to my audience. And use only some of the slides (I know how to do that part).
Thanks!

merv,
A rather simple way, regardless of version, may be to:
1) Select everything and scale down;
2) In the Select dropdown click Object, then Text Objects, then Object>Transform>Transform Each and scale up to the original size or to a(nother) suitable one.

Changing the texture in 3D chart

How do I change the texture on a 3D chart? I've searched all over the Help, but I can't find it anywhere...

Don't mention it
I originally came to the discussions looking to find out how how to apply the wooden effect to my charts in Pages. After finding this thread with the search tool I thought I'd poke around more for the texture files.
I noticed that the textures used on charts in Keynote were dependent upon the theme and could not be changed. Therefore - I poked around in the Theme's package contents

Creating Custom Theme for Power View Clustered columns chart

Helllo...
Is it possible to create custom theme for displaying clustered columns chart on Power View?
Basically I am looking to create chart with specific colors for the bars? For e.g. for High - RED, Medium - Orange and Low - Yellow color. When I look at themes available in Excel 2013 I don't see this combination as such, so I was looking to create one
myself.
I tried to create a theme using video on youtube, but the theme which I created is not showing up in Power View mode in excel 2013.

Hi Sagar,
In Power View, it has several default theme colors for us to apply to our workbook. Also, we can change the Font, Text Size and Background of the chart. However, it is not support to design a custom theme color.
You can refer to the following steps to change the theme colors:
1. On the POWER VIEW tab, in the Themes group, click Themes.
2. Under Built-in, click the theme that you want to use.
Please refer to the following screenshot below:

Keynote Custom Theme Background

I have created my own custom theme in Keynote on my iMac, it works fine and has a white background, so previews fine.
However when I save it to Keynote on my iPad and view it, the white areas on the background go transparent and I just see the standard grey background, plus the colours have all changes.
Why does it do this?
Can I change the background on my iPad Keynote to white?
The image I imported as a background on my iMac Keynote has a white background already so why doesnt this show up on iPad keynote.
If anyone can offer any pointers, I'd be really grateful.
Ness

Others may correct me, but my understanding is that Keynote masters can only have one title text box, and one body text box. Any other text placed on the master will appear as that literal text, and not as a text container.

Can you change the button color on a custom theme?

I recently installed a nice theme called Fractal-01 Song of a morning breeze. I had to installan add-on to change the menus that were white and thus invisible, but I have not figured out how to get the grey buttons for like Home and Back and Reload black, and they are very hard to see with this theme.
I tried changing them in Custom Theme Restorer, but nothing seems to change them to black. I can't imagine that the person who designed this theme would have made these washed out colors that blend into the theme the default, but maybe he or she did. It is a shame to give up on such a nice theme if I don't have to, but it helps if you can see your buttons.

Hi sherylz,
It is also possible to edit the theme, but it may be wise to make a copy of it:

Unable to locate custom themes in Keynote '09

I created some custom themes that I want to delete. I have been unable to locate them on my hard drive. The directions in the Keynote '09 User Guide don't point me to the right place. I found the stock themes in Applications> iWork'09> Keynote.app> Contents> Resources> Themes, but my custom themes aren't in there. I've done a global search for the file names and for .kth files, but they don't show up. Can anyone help me locate/delete these themes (that are outdated and cluttering up my themes menu)?
Thanks!

Thanks, Kelly! I had actually just figured it out when I started to save a new template and looked backwards up the file tree. It's all under my user ID rather than the basic "Library" folder. So thanks so much!

SAP Portal Custom Themes to change ESS/MSS UI Look and feel , possible ?

Hi,
I have a requirement where the look and feel of the UI controls of the ESS/MSS applications have to be different - Jazzy
I know XSS homepage framework is for the customisation of Areas, Sub Areas. What I am more interested is only the look and feel UI of ESS/MSS applications.
If I change the standard theme of portal using Theme Editor and create a new custom theme with different back ground colors, fonts, sizes for all the UI controls,.Will the customised Theme apply on the standard ESS / MSS screens ? Also my doubt is we are using EHP3 and I am not sure how many are Webdynpro java based or webdynpro Abap based.
Will the theme apply to both WDA and WDJ application UI controls?
Any inputs in this regard will be of great help. thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sreeram
