Branding with View Configurations

We’ve extended the Branding feature with a powerful enhancement: you can now store view configurations as defaults inside your Branding presets.

This means Branding doesn’t just define colours, fonts, and themes — it now also controls how new views behave by default, such as whether bar charts have rounded ends, gridlines are hidden, or line charts use smooth curves.

⚠️ Note: To use this feature an Enterprise licence is required.

Why this matters

Until now, Branding applied only stylistic presets (colours, fonts, light/dark mode). View options — like line thickness, gridlines, or filter settings — had to be configured manually for each new view.

The only way to ensure all your views of a certain type looked the same was to copy/paste the view.

With this update, you can capture and reuse view configurations across all future reports. This delivers:

• Consistency – every new chart, filter, or table follows the same defaults

• Efficiency – no more reapplying the same settings every time

• Stronger branding – reports look and behave the way your organisation expects

How it works

The recommended way to set up Branding with view configurations is:

1. Create a dedicated project

   • Add one example of each view type you want to standardise (e.g., bar chart, line chart, table, filter).

   • Customise these views exactly how you want them to appear by default (rounded bars, hidden gridlines, smooth curves, line widths etc.).

   • NOTE: Map view layers styling are currently not part of the branding view configurations.
     
     
     

2. Export styles from the project

   • In the Report, click the three-dots menu in the toolbar.

   • Choose Styles
     

   • Choose three-dots menu and choose Export.
     

   • Make sure to tick Include view configurations.
     

     
     

3. Now, go to the folder where you want to apply these defaults and import into Folder Branding.

   • Go to Folder branding > Edit Report styles.
     

   • Import the exported XML file.
     
     

   • All new reports in that folder will now use your branding styles and saved view defaults.
