Customizing colors doesn't work
Hi All,
I have an issue regarding customizing colors of the visuals in Power BI, I created my charts but everytime I change the color of the visuals, it does not work.
it does not work. I followed the documentation here:
Tips and tricks for formatting in reports - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
I have 4 visuals, and when selecting another theme, only 2 of them gets to change and the others remain and even when selecting a new theme and changing the colors under "Visual" tab still does not work.
I am using Power BI Desktop (May 2024) Version: 2.129.1127.0 64-bit
Try this sample PBIX file. If it works in here, then I don't know what you've done in your file! If it still doesn't work in this sample PBIX file then it might be able issue with your Power BI Desktop version.

That's strange. Can you provide a sample PBIX file of what you're working on (excluding any sensitive data)? Also, please make sure you are using the latest version of Power BI Desktop.
It is strange. But I cannot send this file because everything in this is sensitive data. 😕
I am using the Power BI Desktop Version: 2.129.1127.0 64-bit (May 2024)
it is the available version of power BI in our on prem serverit is even stranger when I made a new PBIX file with this data and visual and still i cannot change the colors
That is definitely very strange. I'm using the June 2024 version and it's working fine for me. Obviously the format menu looks a bit different for me and you given the different versions, but fundamentally the functionalities are the same.
Change colour for all columns
Change colour for specific column
