Adding shadow to all visual objects by default

Hi,

 

How do we add the shadow to all visual objects to a json theme file? The options is not available in the theme editor.

 

Thanks.

  • Greg_Deckler  Thanks,

     

    Yup I can help with this.

     

    I Just documented this feature at https://themes.powerbi.tips/themes/properties

     

    Navigate to a visual.

    Open the section labeled Drop Shadow

    Set your properties

    Download Theme (Found at the bottom of the page)

    Load to Desktop and enjoy your new visual style.

     

    Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution!

      Also, it would be great if we can load a json file in the theme generator, edit it, and download the result.

      Great, I didn't know you were the guy behind the theme generator! Awesome job, Mike_Carlo !

    Hi SBPFA ,

     

    It is not supported to adding shadow to all visual objects by default  to a json theme file  in Power BI currently . There is an idea about this issue, please vote it up, Add drop shadow formatting to all visuals , and you can add your comments there to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

     

    As a workaround, you may add image with shadow using image editor to the background, and set the size for the report page. See similar thread: Add shadow to shapes.

     

    Best Regards,
