Can't set date font/background in slicer any more?

It appears something got dropped in newer versions of Power BI desktop?

 

I'm trying to match the look of my report to one that was created by someone else earlier.

 

The earlier report has the date fields in the slicer set to a white backgraound and a larger readable font, while mine has the same background as the slicer itself and a tiny unreadable font.

 

I've Googled for how to set the font/background of the fields but everything refers to "Row" or "Item" under the visualization format area.  I don't have either of these, just General, Header, Slider, Title, Background, Lock aspect, and Border which match the earlier report exactly.

 

I've looked everywhere I can think of to set these.  The person who created the earlier report was stumped as well.

Hi @sdlsaginaw,

Yes, these features seem be removed at recently released version. If you want these feature back, you can try to submit this requirement to ideas.
