Overview

Skins are color profile variations within a theme. Each theme includes multiple skins that change the color scheme of graphics while keeping the same layout and design structure. When you select a theme for a competition, you can choose which skin to use, and you can change the skin later by editing the competition's theme instance.


What skins control

Skins determine the color profile of all graphics in your broadcast. This includes:


* Overlay colors


* Text colors


* Background colors


* Graphic element colors


The layout, design structure, and graphic types remain the same across all skins within a theme. Only the colors change.


Selecting a skin when creating a competition

When you create a competition and select a theme, you can choose which skin to use:


1. Click Assets tab, then Competitions


2. Click Create a Competition


3. Browse available themes and click Select and Configure on your preferred theme


4. Review how the theme looks during different match moments (break graphics, in-match graphics, player graphics)


5. Select different skins if desired to change the color profile


6. Click Use this theme once you've selected your preferred skin


7. Complete the competition details and click Create Competition


Changing the skin for an existing competition

You can change which skin a competition uses by editing the theme instance:


1. Click Assets, then Competitions


2. Select the competition you wish to edit


3. Click the Theme Instances tab


4. Find the theme you wish to edit from the list


5. Click the Edit icon button


6. Select Change Skin to modify the color profile


The new skin applies to all matches under this competition.


Theme instances

Each competition has at least one theme instance. The theme instance stores which theme is assigned to the competition and which skin is active. If you want to change the theme entirely (not just the skin), you add a new theme instance to the competition.
