Color Theme for Charts
By default, a primary color theme is applied. Pie, Line, and Bar Charts will take this theme for their display. You can also select another color theme based on a purple gradient.
Color Theme for Severity
The color theme for severity specifies the colors to use to highlight the different severity levels. For example, the color to use for Major, Minor, Warning, Critical, and Normal. Severity levels are indicated in certain tables, such as the Events List table. You can change the color theme for severity by selecting a color for one or more of the severity levels and clicking Save. The change takes effect immediately. You can revert back at any time.
