Using [this page](http://docs.nimblehost.com/rwthemefaq#theme-backup-guide-652) as a guide, I’ve made progress. But the process still isn’t really working. Should I be Saving from and reloading into: - the Styles in each page’s Style tab (Page Inspector), as that page of Jonathan’s directs, **or** - into the Master Style in Settings (_RW 7.0.2_) What role does ‘Theme Default’ play? In [Flexture](http://www.nimblehost.org/store/flexture/), for instance, clicking on ‘Theme Default’ in Settings \> Master Style reverts all the Theme’s display parameters to those that ship with Flexture losing all my settings! And, finally, what about ‘Use Master Style’? I have successfully edited a Theme Style using _BBEdit_, although it loses the correct icon; and although the Style’s name seems to need changing in more than that one place in the file’s last six lines. I can certainly see what’s meant to happen: - save all the theme’s parameters from one Project (or is it from one Theme?) - edit them only inasmuch as you make the Style available to another Theme by changing the appropriate string for that in the XML - load the parameters back into the other Theme/Project But Where: each Page or the Master Style? And what of the effect that Master Style has? TIA to anyone who’s really made this work for any guidance you can offer! --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/transferring-styles-between-identical-themes/7738)._
