Change series line colors for multiple Line charts

Hi!

I have three nearly identical line charts on my page. The differences are that one chart has error bars enabled, another does not, and the third has an additional constant line (each visible on respective bookmark). I created these duplicates to allow users to switch between different visual styles. Unfortunately, it seems I can't achieve this with a single chart in Power BI.

Now, I need a way for users to change the line colors on all three charts simultaneously. Currently, the only solution is using the selection pane to select all three charts and then adjust the colors. This method is somewhat impractical and often buggy, as it only works intermittently, both in Power BI Desktop and the PBI Service - very strange behaviour here.

Another option is using the Format painter (brush icon), but I can't find this feature in PBI Service.

Could you please advise if there's a better way for users to change line colors on all charts simultaneously? Ideally, it would be great to manage this with a single chart, but the bookmark functionality in Power BI doesn't seem to support chart settings.

@davidz106 , Based on what I got. I there is only one line, you can select multiple visual and change. for more than one that option is not there

Best to set the theme with the top 8 colors.

Yes, but there's a bug there. i have 3 instances of same graph on 3 bookmarks. And even with selecting all 3, color would only change on first chart sometimes and not on all 3. I think this is a bug in the system. Sometimes it changes for all 3.
