The THEME tab contains the most commonly used commands and command lists for working with theme settings and styles. It is a consolidation of the Modify Thematic Map dialog boxes for all theme types except the Grid theme. The THEME tab makes commonly used theme editing tasks much easier and in most cases eliminates the need to use the theme modification dialogs.
When you select a theme type in the Layers or Explorer window, the THEME tab displays settings and styles for that particular theme. Any updates or changes to the settings and styles on the THEME tab automatically updates the map's meta-data and the theme view, except when you modify the actual data in the table being themed. In that case you have to Recalculate the theme to reflect the updates on the map.
