    Hi Anonymous ,

    Thanks for your clarification.

    Sorry for that I misunderstood your scenario before.

    By my research and test again, I'm afraid that this should be a default behaviour for your situation which has been mentioned in the officila docuement.

    situations when report theme colors wont stick to your reports

Hi Anonymous ,

By my tests again with the latest version Power BI Desktop(Store version and Web download version), it seems that the code could work.

You could have a test with my attached pbix file with the theme code for my first reply.

If you still have problems, please share a dummy pbix file which can reproduce the issue, so that we can help further investigate on it? You can upload it to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Best  Regards,

Cherry

yes if i only switch between themes imported in .json file it works but if i manualy change fonts (like on screen by clicking text size arrrow up to 23 px) and then after this change i try to load my theme or change theme to default, title won't change to settings defined in theme. 

 

Case in steps: 

1. someone works on a report and change font settings manualy.

2. I create big theme.json file to overwrite all changes made manualy.

3. After loading my theme, all charts have style defined in theme.json file, except those that were set manualy on step 1

 

I have over 20 tabs in the report so if i would like to unify all charts i would have to change settings chart by chart.

 

Thanks for your help.

      This "feature" is ridiculous. If we have an template, he SHOULD overwrite any manual change.
