Change background color of chart/graphs titles with Json file

[Anonymous]

Hey Mates,

Does anyone know how to change the background color of the titles of the carts/graphs with a json file?

I'm trying to change the yellow color and the text color, but I can't find the name element or the property on the json file.

Thanks in advance

Hi @Anonymous ,

To change background color of chart/graphs titles, please add a visualStyles section to the JSON file to nest the formatting specifics. Here's a sample:

{
  "name": "Custom Theme",
  "dataColors": [ "#990011", "#cc1144", "#ee7799", "#eebbcc", "#cc4477", "#cc5555", "#882222", "#A30E33" ],
  "background": "#FFFFFF",
  "foreground": "#ee7799",
  "tableAccent": "#990011",
  "visualStyles": {
    "*": {
      "*": {
        "title": [
          {
            "show": true,
            "fontColor": { "solid": { "color": "#FFFFFF" } },
            "background": { "solid": { "color": "#cc4477" } }
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Hi Winniz, thanks for you answer, but for some reason, it is just applying that style for some titles, but, for the ones for the charts/graphs, it didn't work, don't know if I have to add a specific property, it's really odd. This is what I'm getting when I upload your Theme.json file:

As you can see the titles are still yellow, but the other ones, are pink :(.

Thank you so much!

G'day Mate,

If that's a header of your chart, you can change background and Font in Visualization->Format->Title:

Hi Vahid,

Thank you so much for your answer, but I'm trying to find a property or the name of that element, to change it, with a json file (I'm creating a new theme). Appriciate your time. Have a good one and thanks again.

You can edit it at the visual level under Title in the format options.
