Change the style
To change your interface’s style, click Apply for the desired style. The interface will refresh with the newly-selected style.
To set a style as the default style, click Set as Default for the desired style.
When you set a style as the default style, the system does not automatically apply that style to your account. You must also click Apply to apply that style for your account.
