Abstract:
Mechanisms are described herein for propagating a theme definition from a host application to a host extension so that the host application and the host extension are visually consistent. A theme definition may be updated after a theme change event occurs as a result of a user interacting with the host application. The theme definition may then be utilized by the host extension to update one or more UI elements presented by the host extension to enable visual consistency.
