Selecting a theme will change the appearance of all common buttons to a version of that same button in the selected theme. Any custom button images created and added to the toolbar will be left unchanged. Starting with the release of version 4.32 there is a new "color" theme that contains a more modern looking button style. If the "color" theme is not included in the theme list, then the new color.tbl file may not be downloaded. More theme options are likely to accompany future releases.

Standard Toolbar Buttons

The buttons listed here are standard with all Think GIS installations. Aside from overall theme changes described above, users cannot change the appearance or function of these individual buttons. However, users can remove one of these standard buttons from the toolbar by unchecking the corresponding checkbox.

Custom Toolbar Buttons

This list shows any user added buttons. Users can specify up to 12 of these custom buttons that will show on the toolbar regardless of what map is open. See Layer Specific Buttons for instructions on associating buttons with a specific layer rather than with the workstation.
