Description

The themes for NITRO forms are stored at the site level, that is, if any custom theme is created in NITRO forms designer, then that theme is available for all the lists in that site. For NITRO forms for any list, the theme can be applied from ‘Layouts and Theme’ section in the left-hand panel. If we need to apply the same theme for NITRO forms in some other site, then we can export the theme from the source site and import it in the target site.
