Define default values for common properties

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 77

I'm looking for a technique to change the default color and border properties of controls when they are created.  Templates provide preset controls, but do not alter PowerApps defaults for new controls.   The same can be said for using dynamic properties.

We are looking for a method for developers to build canvas apps without having to spend time changing properties of data cards, galleries, and other text/input controls.

    Sorry - that was the wrong link. This one lets you define the colors for each control

    Thanks Brian.  I discovered the CoE Starter kit also has a theming solution.  Have you ever used it?  if so how does it compare to this ThemeEditor?

    I have not used that one - just the one I linked to. This one is missing a control object or 2 but other than that works well
