Description

Solution

FortiGate GUI Theme:

• v7.2.X.  From GUI: Go to System -> Settings -> View Settings -> Theme and select the drop-down menu to see the list of theme colors.

From CLI: As this is a global change, the command needs to be run in the global mode:

config system global

    set gui-theme ?  <----- Here, the question mark provides the list of available themes for GUI.
     jade        <----- Jade theme (green color).
     neutrino    <----- Neutrino theme (dark blue color).
     mariner     <----- Mariner theme (blue color).
     graphite    <----- Graphite theme (gray color).
     melongene   <----- Melongene theme (eggplant color).
     retro       <----- Retro theme (retro theme with dark green color).
     dark-matter <----- Dark-matter theme (dark theme with purple color).
     onyx        <----- Onyx theme (dark theme with green color).
     eclipse     <----- Eclipse theme (dark theme with orange color).
    set gui-theme jade
end

The theme for the GUI has been changed to the green (jade) color theme.
