Ampler Charts applies a saved theme to a chart, updating its font, series colours, and series outlines to match — in one click.
Quick answer: Left-click the chart, select Chart theme, and choose a theme from your library; the chart updates to match its font and colours.
How to use it
Left-click the chart, then pick a saved theme.
- Left-click on the chart and select Chart theme.
- Select a chart theme from those available in your library.
- The chart automatically updates to match the font, series colours, and series outlines.
The chart takes on the theme’s font and colours at once, so it’s on-brand instantly.
When to use it
Apply a theme to put a chart on your house (or client) colours and font in one click — rather than recolouring series by hand.
How consultants use it
Applying an approved theme is the fast way to keep charts on-brand. Three habits apply:
- On-brand in one click: the chart takes the approved font and colours
- No manual recolouring: series colours come from the theme, not the picker
- Consistent across the deck: every chart shares the same scheme
Applying a theme puts a chart on-brand instantly.
Tips & best practices
- Apply your house theme to every chart for consistency.
- Switch to a client theme when working on their materials.
- Combine with a saved layout for formatting and decorators.
