Set how HiveIQ looks for you — the color theme and how tightly information is packed into tables. Use this whenever the screen is too bright, too dark, or you want to see more rows at once.

## 🎨 Choose a Theme
1. Under **Theme**, pick one of:
   - **☀️ Light** — bright background.
   - **🌙 Dark** — dark background, easier on the eyes in low light.
   - **💻 System** — automatically follows your computer's light or dark setting.
2. Click **Save** to apply.

> Saving your theme keeps the rest of HiveIQ looking consistent across the app.

## 📋 Choose Table Density
1. Under **Table density**, pick one of:
   - **Comfortable** — more spacing between rows, easier to scan.
   - **Compact** — fits more rows on screen at once.
2. Click **Save** to apply.

## 💾 Saving Your Changes
- When you make a change, an **Unsaved changes** badge appears at the top.
- Click **Save** to keep your choices, or **Discard** to undo them and go back to your last saved settings.

> Your preferences are remembered for next time you sign in.
