JSON Theme Subtotals

I want the subtotals for rows and columns to not be bold. Has anyone successfully turned it off?   Under the Subtotals section, the fontColour, backColour work, but the bold property type doesn't. ...

apply to headers is irrelevant to the solution. Setting it to true or false does not impact the subtotal rows and columns.

 

 

Within Power BI Settings we can manually select and unselect the bold, italic, and underline. This should be possible to be preset within the json theme.

Hi cassandra_c ,

On further research this isn’t supported directly in the ReportTheme schema. You cannot control text formatting like bold, italic, or underline specifically for subtotals, which is why those properties don’t have any effect.

The closest workaround is to adjust the font family so the bold styling appears lighter,

Other than adjusting the font styling this way, there isn’t currently a method to explicitly unbold subtotals while keeping the grand total bold through the theme schema.

The allowed parameters to be adjusted using custom themes are found in View -> customize themes

 


I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further queries.
Thank you
