Custom Map Theme

Applying your own custom map theme can be done on the Territories page within the Territory Settings dialog. To view how to change Territory Settings and access the dialog, refer to the Territory View Settings guide.

Creating your own map theme gives you full and complete control over how your maps appear. From the color of the tiles, what is shown on your maps, the look and size of the street names, and much more.

Territory Helper supports custom map themes from two different providers, MapTiler or Mapbox. Refer to the section associated with the provider you choose.

Once complete the theme will be accessible under the map theme list labeled as Custom and ready for use.
