Create and manage insight themes
Introduction
In the Insight section of Artshell, you can create presentations and custom content starting from either a blank page or pre-designed templates.
Insight themes let you save layouts, graphic settings, content blocks, and custom styles so you can quickly reuse them whenever you create a new insight.
This feature is especially useful if you frequently create documents with a recurring structure, for example:
- viewing room;
- Artworks presentations;
- artist profile;
- business proposals;
- presentations for trade shows or collectors.
By using themes, you can maintain a consistent visual style and significantly speed up content creation.
