How to Hide White Background on Power Point

Hello, I'm trying to share some graphs in my PowerPoint presentation. These graphs are from Power BI, but when I use the share link in PowerPoint, the background appears white. In my report, the background is transparent.

Does anyone know how to change the background or make it transparent?

Hi @jborgesz ,

 

Please check your transparency setting to make sure it is 100%, not 0%.

As shown in the image, I tested with 0% transparency and disabled the background, as well as with 100% transparency enabled. However, when I embed Power BI into my PowerPoint using the same link, the result remains unchanged and the white background appears

Hi @jborgesz ,

 

According to my test, the transparency set in service really doesn't work after importing PowerPoint, I think it's because of the design of power bi. So you can set your background colour to a colour that is in harmony with what you have in your PowerPoint so that it renders aesthetically.

@jborgesz you can surely change the background in the Power BI and see if that background shows up in PPT. Not sure why the transparent is showing white, should be reported as a bug on the issue forum.
