Description
For end users belonging to a company which has a theme defined, they still see the system default theme, although their theme picker depicts the company record's selection.
Steps to Reproduce
- Go to User Organization > Companies
- Open a company (ex: Apple)
- Configure form layout to add 'theme' field.
- Select the 'rose' theme and save
- Create 2 users (ex: Steve Jobs, Bill Gates)
- Impersonate user (ex: Steve Jobs)
- Observe the theme is still system theme
- Use cog wheel and select theme section and notice that 'Rose' is selected.
Expected:
Per the official documentation, "In UI16, the basic configuration is used instead of the theme selected in the company record."
Actual:
Although the basic configuration is displayed, the cog wheel setting indicates the user has selected "Rose" - Selecting "Rose" then does update the theme.
