Setting the page size in theme

Hello,

After July's 2.60.5169.3201 update, we've finally gotten some more features when creating .json themes. I have played around, but wasn't able to find a way to set the page size within the page element, and I've found it strange seeing that we can set the background and wallpaper properties but not this.
I've tried things like "pagesize", "PageSize", "size", "Size", inside the "Background" etc. yet nothing worked, even if a lot of them were accepted as themes in PowerBI Desktop.


Has anyone else figured a way how to do this? Or is it still not possible?

Cheers!

    Hi Smauro,

     

    As the announcement said "the majority of visual properties were able to be themed, but the visual’s “container” properties were not. " Currently, page element with can be customized is as below:

            "page": {
    
                    "*": {
    
                      "background": [{
    
                       "color": { "solid": { "color": "#FFFFFF" } },
    
                       "transparency": 25
    
                    }],
    
                    "outspace": [{
    
                        "color": { "solid": { "color": "#004753" } },
    
                        "transparency": 0
    
                    }]
    
                }

    In addtion, you can refer to this similar case: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/Set-default-size-of-visuals-in-custom-theme-file/m-p/472888#

      I'd also like a theme that automatically sets the canvas size so maybe somebody knows if this is possible by now and what the settings are called that need to be added to the JSON.
