How to have a Border Around a PIE Chart Canvas or Frame

HI,

I have created a PIE Chart in Power BI but after reviewing the options for an hour, I can't find the Border Option to have a Border around the frame or canvas that contains the Pie Chart. I need to have a Squire Border around the frame so the visualization products are separated. 

Is there an option I can use in Power bi Desktop for Pie or Donut charts?

Thank you

You can add a border to any visual in Power BI. Use the formatting pane:

I do not find this option when using pie chart now what should I do, any workaround I need to make the pie chart inside border color. 

@SSamaniya if you are getting the border option in Power BI Desktop, please install the May version as this update is released by power bi last month only
