    About this task

    As a category, all card illustrations share color hook mappings. As a result, the colors that you apply to one card illustration type are also applied to the entire card illustration category.
    Important:
    Configuring card illustration colors applies to Workspaces and isn’t supported in the Core UI.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Now Experience Framework > Theme Builder.
      The Theme Builder landing page opens in a new tab and is displayed in the Home page view.
    2. Use the Page drop-down list to select the Editor page view.

      The card illustrations available for editing are listed by type on the main stage.

They’re listed from most prominent to least.
