Hi @ThomasWeppler ,

 

For Q1: Is it possible to change the background of the dropdown menu so it is no longer white?

You could change the background color of the drop-down under item.

For Q2: Is it possible to change the size and location of the dropdown menu so it drop down the same way?

You can drag the border of your slicer to change its size or change the width and height of the slicer in "General".

For Q3: Is it possible to change the location of the dropdown menu so it is below and not above?

The location of the dropdown menu is determined by the location of the slicer.

@amitchandak Thanks a lot.

Do you know if it is possible to change the location of the dropdown menu so it is below and not above?
And is it possible to change the length of the dropdown menu?

@ThomasWeppler , You have the item, under that color and font. That you can change.

 

Better you do it using themes : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-report-themes
