Starting with Arc v3.3, the cube viewer comes with styles! From a cube view, you can select the style you want to use and access the View Style Editor to create your own styles.

The other way to access it, is to expand Tools and click on View Style Editor:

Change the style using the dropdown (* means this is the default style).
-
Load the Style
-
Edit the JSON directly

Add and Delete the style
Creating a new style
To create a new style, you can either click the Save As or the Add buttons. In the example below, we click the Save As button and name the style “My New Style”
