- Click your avatar (top-right) and choose Theme Studio.
- Click any theme card and watch the Live Preview.
- Press Apply. The whole Desk changes at once, on every device you log in from. While you are there, try the Density switch under the preview: Compact fits more on the screen, Spacious gives forms more air. See Density.
- Open the avatar menu again and choose Sound Settings.
- Press Preview on any row, pick a preset chip you like, and close the dialog. Everything saved as you went.
- Press Ctrl+K anywhere and type the first letters of a record type, a report or a theme. See Command Palette.
That is all most people ever need. When you want more, read Theme Studio and Sound Studio.
- Open Nexus Theme → Theme Settings. Every option is off, so nothing has changed on your site yet. Decide whether you want a Site Default Theme, your Navbar Logo and Favicon, and whether people may build and share their own themes. See Theme Settings.
- Open Nexus Theme → Permission Inspector, choose A person, and type a colleague's name. Read the plain-language summary and the table. Nothing changes until you press Change permissions, then Save changes, then confirm. See Permission Inspector.
