Make a table or matrix transparent
I can see previous posts showing how to do this but using historic versions of PBI. Is it still possible to make a table or matrix transparent. I've tried switching background of and setting style present to None but its not giving me what I want, outcome below:
I want the column headers and all value fields to be transparent.
Cheers for your help in advance.

Thank you for this quick response but I dont have an option to select 'no value' for background colour, see below:
I've found you also need to go to the General pane (of the visual settings) and ensure that Background is set to Off.
I have been looking for this type of answer forever - so simple!
But why on earth have MS 'hidden' this option and not made it so, directly in all of the background color options no matter the type of visual, blooddy annoying.
I believe its because I'm using a custom theme and therefore not able to achieve what I need, would you think this is the cause. I have tried adjusting the custom theme but PBI wont allow me to re-set to default, may need to re-build custom theme.
Hi VijayP I am trying to make the background color of my table/matrix visual transparent but so far no luck. I have a custom theme so followed your instructions above (Style preset to None and 100% transparency in Customize theme/Visuals/Background) but this doesn't make the background transparent. Would you have any other suggestions?
