Apply Theme dialog box
Command: Format > Theme
FrontPage 2002
The Themes dialog box looks like this:

Options in this pane include:
- Choose if you wish to apply the Theme to all pages or to
selected pages.
- All Pages - the Theme will apply to all pages
within your Web (but not to any
Subwebs).
- Selected Pages - the Theme will apply only to
the page you have open, as well as to any pages that you
have selected in the Folder
List.
- Choose if you want to apply with Vivid colors, Active
graphics, Background picture, and CSS.
- Vivid Colors - Some themes have two color
schemes - a "Normal" color scheme, and a "Vivid" color
scheme.
- Active Graphics - Choosing this option will
allow your graphic link bars
to have "rollover" graphics. Unchecking the option will
mean that your button graphics do not change when the
mouse is on them.
- Background Picture - Some themes include a
background picture. If you do not wish to have the
background picture, uncheck this box.
- Apply using CSS - Checking this box means
that the font and text styles defined in the Theme will
be applied through an external style sheet that
FrontPage generates. If you don't check this box, font
styles will be applied through the HTML <font> tag and
will add a lot more code. (Note - Applying with CSS may
result in certain font styles not showing consistently
in different browsers. Test your site to make sure!)
- Modify - Allows you to make changes to the Theme and
even save it as a new Theme.
