Chiclet Slicer / Themes
I see. You used the preloaded theme.
We'll investigate this issue deeper.

Hello Ignat,
I simply used the Switch Themes button in the menu ribbon. As you can see in my screenshot, I selected a grey color for the Selected Color, but the canvas uses the PowerBI default color that would be in that position, which is a yellow color. The theme palette changes with each Theme I select, but the color selection doesn't seem to pick up on the new colors. I've attached a PBIX file here of just a simple calendar table - I honestly don't know if this would save the themes that I have downloaded or not, so you may have to load your own themes in to test.
I can reproduce the issue as well. In general it looks like Power BI Dekstop bug.
Can you share theme file as well?

OK, this is odd. I was about to attach the theme that I was using, but I couldn't find that JSON file. In fact, all of the ones that appear in my desktop dropdown menu, don't seem to have a corresponding JSON file. Although, these themes do work on other visuals. I tried a simple table, and was able to change the colors according to any one of these themes. I was also able to change the chiclet slicer colors if I imported a custom theme JSON file. So it seems that these pre-loaded themes don't work on the chiclet slicer.

I have the same problem with theme, which I imported.
Previously everything was fine. It looks like this problem has appeared again with a new January version.
