Branding and Colors
Available for custom SLDS 1 and custom SLDS 2 themes.
Select your brand’s primary color for use throughout your Salesforce org. A color palette complimentary to your brand color generates automatically. The colors in your brand-based color palette are used throughout your Salesforce org. Due to accessibility implications, some color customizations, like global header background color, are available only for SLDS 1 themes.
Dark Mode
Available for SLDS 2 themes in select editions. See Salesforce Cosmos Theme and SLDS 2 Availability.
An inversion of the traditional light color scheme, dark mode shows light-colored text and visual elements on a dark background. As an admin, you decide if your users can turn on dark mode or not. If you activate dark mode for your Salesforce org, then every user sees the option to select a color mode when they click their profile picture. The default color mode is light. A user can select dark mode or system mode, which syncs with the light and dark settings configured for their computer. To learn more about color mode, see Personalize Lightning Experience Display.
To share feedback about dark mode, see the Trailblazer Community Design Trailblazers.
Images
Available for custom SLDS 1 and custom SLDS 2 themes.
Upload images like your company logo, banners, and avatars.
Advanced Configuration
Available for custom SLDS 2 themes.
Advanced accent colors for components like containers and container content generate automatically based on the brand color that you select. These colors meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) for color contrast, and we strongly discourage overriding these colors.
If you enable dark mode for your org, dark mode–specific advanced accent colors are also generated.
