# Plasma Style

&plasma; comes with multiple styles. The &plasma; style defines how the different components of &plasma; are displayed (⪚ Plasmoids, panels, widgets).

Here's a screenshot of the &plasma; style manager Customizing &plasma; style

In this module you can:

- install and choose &plasma; styles

- edit &plasma; styles

- remove &plasma; styles

It is possible to filter the style list using the Search... field above the grid. Moreover, you can use the combo box next to this field to show only the Light Themes, the Dark Themes or the Color scheme compatible themes.

If you want to remove a style, use the overlay icon at the bottom right of the style icon. To undo this action click on the icon. If you hit the Apply button the styles selected for removal are actually deleted, so you cannot undo individual or all deletions.

If the plasma-sdk package is installed on your system, a button appears hovering a style preview and lets you start the Plasma Theme Explorer.
