Slicer Outline Colour

Hi there,

 

I'm trying to change the outline colour of my slicer (default slicer visual) box to black. I'm presuming the option for Outline Color under General in the Format options is meant to do this but it does not appear to be working.

@jcarville I am running into the same issue, and would like to be able to change this border/outline color (especially hen working with dark themes). I have upvoted.

Hi @jcarville,

 

Based on my test in Power BI desktop version 2.56.5023.942 64-bit (March 2018), it's able to change outline color for slicer dropdown mode. Please note that we need to set outline format for header or items. See:

Hi @v-qiuyu-msft,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

It is the colour of the outline of the slicer box, which I have highlighted around in red below, that I am looking to change:

Hi @jcarville,

 

Based on my research, there is no OOTB option to change this outline color. You can submit a idea here
