Saving a Favorite Theme


You've added a new background, new music, and tweaked the buttons and text to your liking. If you want to keep this setting for future projects, save it as a favorite.

To save a favorite theme:

1.

Choose Save Theme as Favorite from the File menu (Figure 21.24).

Figure 21.24. When you're ready to save your theme, choose the Save Theme as Favorite option.


2.

In the dialog that appears, type a name for the theme (Figure 21.25).

Figure 21.25. Type a name for your new favorite theme, and decide if all users of your Mac can use it.


3.

To make the theme available for all users on your computer, enable the Shared for all users option.

4.

If you're changing a favorite that you've already created and want to save over it, mark the Replace existing checkbox.

5.

After the theme is saved, it becomes available in the Themes pane. Choose Favorites or All from the popup menu to view your theme (Figure 21.26).

Figure 21.26. Saved themes appear in the Themes pane's Favorites list, and include a custom icon.


Tips

  • If you've arranged your buttons with the Free Positioning option selected in the Button pane, those positions become the basis for the grid when you apply your favorite theme to a new project.

  • If you placed a photo or movie in a drop zone before saving the theme as a favorite, that media becomes part of the background image, but leaves the drop zone open for new media.
