JSON theme Column Chart: line style

Here is an extract of my JSON theme file for PowerBI. My file is working as a change in "gridlineColor" is reflected is PowerBI. However, the "lineStyle" command is not working. The "Line style" in PowerBI is still set to the standard "Dashed".

 

Any suggestions to why this may be and how to fix this? Thanks!

 

 

 

 

        "columnChart" : {
            "*": {
                "categoryAxis" : [{
                    "show" : true,
                    "fontSize" : 9,
                    "showAxisTitle" : true,
                    "concatenateLabels": false,
                    "lineStyle": "solid",
                    "gridlinesShow": true,
                    
                    "gridlineColor": {
                        "solid": {
                            "color": "#B3B3B3"
                            }
                        }
                    }]                
            }
        }
