Slicer JSON theme

[TanHY]

Hi Power BI Wizards,

Would like to get some sharing from the community:
Are we able to change the colour of the "Clear Selections" rubber in slicer visual? As I studied the schema, seems like t non of the fields are pinpoint to this , not sure is there an alternative or I might missed out something. Thanks for the helps!

Hi @TanHY 

It appears that the eraser stroke colour on the core Slicer visual is controlled by the "foregroundNeutralSecondary" top-level property.

So, this would be a valid theme setting that colour to red:

{
  "name": "RedEraser",
  "foregroundNeutralSecondary": "#FF0000"
}

Alternatively in Power BI Desktop under Customize theme > Name and colors > Advanced > Second-level elements

I couldn't find any other options to control this colour, and no options to control the "fill" of the eraser, but something might exist 🙂

Regards

Thanks for the reply from OwenAuger , please allow me to add some more information:

Hi  @TanHY ,

As far as I know, Power BI currently does not support changing only the eraser color in the slicer. The closest option is to set it in the Customize theme, but the Second-level element includes Slicer slider color, Slicer item font color, and Slicer outline color. Therefore, when making changes, the colors of all three parts will be changed.

Refer to：

You can submit an idea for it at Home (microsoft.com) and wait for users with the same needs as you to vote for you to help make it happen as soon as possible.

Best Regards,

Thanks Owen for your prompt replies. I also knew that the secondary color controlled the color, but it will change other visual settings as well. Hopefully, Power BI will integrate the pinpoint JSON into it in the future.
