Theme settings change every graphic at once. Sometimes you want one graphic to be different, such as a bigger scorebug or a lower third in another colour. Switch to Graphic to change just the one you've selected.

Before you start
Open your theme in the editor on the GRAPHICS & STYLES tab.
Set your theme-wide style, colour, texture, font, animations and edges first. It's easier to decide what should be different once the overall look is in place.
Switch to Graphic
In the list on the left, click the graphic you want to change, for example Scorebug.
With the graphic selected, click Graphic at the top of the right panel.
The right panel now shows settings for this graphic only. Anything you change here won't affect the other graphics in your theme.
Change the size
Find the Scale slider.
Drag it to make the graphic bigger or smaller. The value shows as a percentage.
Check the preview to see the new size.
A slightly larger scorebug can help viewers on phones. A smaller lower third leaves more of the action visible.
Change the position
Find the X and Y position fields.
Type a number into X to move the graphic across the screen, left or right.
Type a number into Y to move it up or down.
Use position to keep a graphic clear of something else on screen, such as a sponsor logo or another graphic. To put the size and position back where they started, click RESET.
Give it its own look with Theme Variables
Scroll to Theme Variables in the right panel.
Open Colour and pick a colour for this graphic only.
Check the preview. The rest of the theme stays the same.
Theme Variables let one graphic override the theme's Theme (style), Colour, Texture and Font. Each one starts as Inherit, followed by the theme's current value in brackets. That means it simply follows the theme. When you pick something else, only this graphic changes.
To undo an override, set it back to the Inherit option and the graphic follows the theme again.
Spot graphics with overrides
In the graphics list on the left, an orange dot appears next to any graphic that has its own settings. It's an easy way to see at a glance which graphics differ from the theme, so nothing surprises you on match day.
Tips and common mistakes
Changing the theme later. If you change the theme colour later, graphics set to Inherit follow it. Graphics with their own colour keep it.
Use overrides sparingly. A consistent look is easier for viewers to follow. Save overrides for graphics that really need to stand out.
Remember to switch back. To change the whole theme again, click Theme at the top of the right panel.
Nothing is kept until you save. You'll see Unsaved changes until you create or update the theme profile. See Save your theme profile.
