Unisys may update the contents of themes in future updates to the ClearPath ePortal Developer product. For example, if you install a new IC for ePortal Developer, Unisys may have made updates to the theme files. Themes in your existing projects are not automatically updated when you install a new IC of ePortal Developer. Because of this, there is a separate process you need to complete to bring your projects' mobile themes up to the latest version.
Note: The themes are now installed and updated using a NuGet package. Using a NuGet package is a more standard way of updating an existing project. For more information on NuGet, refer to https://www.nuget.org/.
