Help - New Card Visual broke my old cards
So I guess Micosoft launched the new Card Visual and suddenly all the formatting on my cards changed.
I am farily good at finding the settings but I just can't get it to work - It is like there is an overlapping container that either I can't turn off the color for - or another solution.
Here is how the card looks broken initially (I didn't want the grey background)
So I turn it off using this setting (Reference labels layout->Background off)
Now it looks like this - you can see the reference label is overlapping on the callout value. Don't like that
So I try this setting to change the padding on the bottom:
Although it moves the container down - you can see it is still having some kind of background which is blocking the callout value below.
Am i missing a setting somewhere? Any ideas or is this a bug?
Thanks!
Hi STARS-sullivan, as you already realized the new Card visual became GA with the November Update, replacing the old card visuals and with that they also updated the default style of the new card.
Here's a post on the new changes and how to fix some of the resulting issues:

I have a published report using multiple cards in a new card visual, to my surprize, only 5 cards (total seven in the visual) are showing, and a scroll bar now appears to scroll to see the remaining two. This is so in the service, while all 7 cards show normally in the PBI desktop! and the setting of multiple cards is corrct (set to 7 cards not 5). In short, what I see on desktop app is not what I get on service. Is this related to the same issue?
PS: I am still on October version on desktop app.
Thanks Microsoft for breaking my card visuals with the November update! I developed a report several months ago with the new card visual (in preview) and it used to look like this (image 1). Now, when viewing the report in the Service, it looks like image 2. Why did you take away the ability to adjust padding between the callout and the reference data??! Is this how it's going to be moving forward? Resources spread so thin through the Fabric ecosystem that you throw your best product out the window? C'mon!
