Hi All,
I am looking to create a world map, but instead of using the colour palettes provided by Power BI, I wish to use a simplified traffic light system (e.g. Bad=Red, Yellow=Average, Green=Good) is there a way for me to make my own bespoke colour palettes and create this?
Thanks in advance,
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @wfcmccormack,
Power BI desktop provides a preview feature for us to import custom color theme. In your scenario, you can define a JSON with expected color, then import this JSON file to Power BI desktop via Import Theme option. For detail information, see: Use Report Themes in Power BI Desktop (Preview).
Best Regards,
Qiuyun Yu
