Chang Colour of Gauge Axis Background

Hey folks,

 

I am looking for a solution:

How does one change the colour of the background of the gauge axis?

Hi  @Rosebu,

 

Annoyingly there isn't a setting for it in the normal place. It is possible to work around this by editing your theme's Third-level elements property (under Name and colors > Advanced) to the colour value you want, e.g.:

dmp_0-1709671404818.png

This will affect the background portion of the gauge:

Note that changing this may affect other areas of your report, so you will probably need to do some quality checks.

 

If this is too selective and affects too much of your report, you should be able to edit the theme JSON manually for the gauge visual type and import it into your workbook. The property you want is backgroundLight.

 

Regards,

 

Daniel
