Setting Colours
You can customise the "Look and Feel" of the Essential Viewer in terms of the report colour styling. You can set the colour styling(Colour Hex Code) for a number of elements and how they are represented in the Essential Viewer. These elements are:-
- Application Codebases

- Technology Delivery Models
- Technology Vendor Release Status

There are 3 ways this can be achieved and set up. They are described below.
