Hello,
Does anyone knows how to set the card background default color and transparency in a new PowerBI Theme?
Thank you

Hi @Anonymous,
JSON them file provides "background" and "transparency" properties allows us to set background color and transparency for a specific visual. Please refer to the sample in this article.

],
"visualStyles": {

"*": {
"*": [
{
"fontSize": 12,
"fontFamily": "Calibri",
"color": {
"solid": {}
}
}
],
"general": [
{
"responsive": true
}
]
}
},
"card": {
"*": {
"background": [
{
"show": true,
"color": {
"solid": {
"color": "#8AD4EB"
}
},

}
],
"labels": [
