Set shape color in Theme .json
Hi community,
I'm in the process of building a PBI template for a customer. I've got an issue with the standard fill of shapes that I can't seem to get working. Here's the code that I'm using:
{
"name": "ShapeTemplate",
"visualStyles": {
"shape": {
"*": {
"fill": [{
"show": true,
"fillColor": { "solid": { "color": "#FFFFFF"}},
"transparency": 0
}],
"visualHeader": [{
"show": false
}]
}
},
"page": {
"*": {
"background": [
{
"color": {
"solid": {
"color": "#CCCCCC"
}
},
"transparency": 100
}
],
"outspace": [
{
"color": {
"solid": {
"color": "#CCCCCC"
}
},
"transparency": 0
}
]
}
}
}
}
I've am able to show/hide the fill using the code above, but it seems like the 'fillColor' parameter does not work for me. Has anyone of you been able to get the fill color working in their templates? If so then I'm curious how you all did it.
kind regards
Hi Anonymous ,
Please try this code and test whether it will work.
For referenec: https://github.com/deldersveld/PowerBI-ThemeTemplates/blob/master/Shape.json
{ "name": "ShapeTemplate", "visualStyles": { "basicShape": { "*": { "line": [{ "lineColor": { "solid": { "color": "#01B8AA"}}, "transparency": 0, "weight": 3, "roundEdge": 0 }], "fill": [{ "show": true, "fillColor": { "solid": { "color": "#DDDDDD"}}, "transparency": 0 }], "rotation": [{ "angle": 0 }], "visualHeader": [{ "show": false }] } } } }And you can check the official document about power bi themes. It listed all the properties: (notice: some of the properties can be confited but they not really enabeld to settings since power bi did not release them to GA for theme usage)

Hello,
Did some ever achieved to set shape border / background with theme ? I tried several things found on differents pages with no success.
It seems to be broken.
After lots of research I finally found a working JSON for shape https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Report-Server/New-Shapes-in-PBI-How-to-Setup-JSON/m-p/1880186
