![]() ![]() Now select a different theme by clicking Page Layout > Themes > Themes. Select some text (a heading, for example) and click Home > Font > Font Colour. Let’s just focus on colours, as we know that fonts and effects will work the same way. Create/open a document and apply a theme to it. Let’s demonstrate the idea of keeping your themes intact with an example. Changing the theme colours, fonts and effect here changes them for the whole document. This means that if you subsequently change the theme, the colour gets changed too. Confining your font, colour and effect selections to those from other themes keeps your document theme-intact. It’s possible to use the colour scheme from Aspect, the fonts from Flow and the effects from Trek. When you click the Colours button, for example, you will see a list of all the colour schemes that are used in different themes. Another way to change the colours, fonts and effects is jumping to the Page Layout tab and use the buttons for Theme Colours, Theme Fonts or Theme Effects. ![]() To use the colours in this panel you first need to select some text in your document. If you then change themes, everything will be updated except the colour you changed. If however you select a standard colour that is not part of a theme (bottom of the window), this breaks the theme. ![]() If you select one of those colour schemes and then change your theme, the colour will change with it. These colour schemes are still part of the current theme. If you click on the Font Colour button in the Font group (Home tab) you’ll notice that the top portion of the window contains a selection of colour schemes that are theme aware. You can select different colours, fonts and effects and still keep your theme intact. It may be that a theme is nearly right for the look you’re going after, but could do with a few tweaks. Objects created in one application, for example spreadsheets, and linked or embedded in another application are OLE objects. An object can be a table, chart, graphic, equation, or other form of information. When you apply a theme to a Word 2010 document tables, charts, SmartArt graphics, shapes, and other objects are updated to complement one another. If the built in themes that are provided with Word 2010 are not enough for you, you can always download more from Microsoft Office Online. Themes have names such as Office, Apex, Aspect, Civic etc. Colours, fonts and effects will change to those used in the theme. If you then hover your cursor over any theme, you will see a Live Preview applied to the whole document. If you click on the themes button you will see a gallery of thumbnail images representing the themes available for use. The themes gallery can be found on the Page Layout tab in the Themes group and Live Previews are available. This means that the document’s tables and charts will loook good together. You can apply a theme with one click and the theme affects the style of the whole document, providing a consistent look and feel across all its elements. Themes make it easy to create stylish and matching documents, because the themes available in Microsoft Word 2010 are the same as those available in other Office 2010 programs. Unlike individual styles that you can apply to each element (tables, charts, etc), a theme affects all the content in your document. A theme in Microsoft Word 2010 consists of colours, fonts and effects. ![]()
