Hi,
I read that theme switching would be available in the March update. I am running 2.44.4675.521 64-bit (March 2017), but I don't see the button in the ribbon. De-install/re-install didn't do the trick either.
Am I missing something? (except for the button
)
Thanks,
Rudi

Hi @rudiklein
Have you enabled it in the Preview Features?
File -> Options and Settings -> Options -> Preview Features
Refer to the solution for older version:

Hi. I do not have the "Preview Features" in Options. Does anyone know why would that be?
Hi,
I have the same issue I don't see that choice in the ribbon list . Is this normal? anybody has a suggestion ?
I wasn't aware I had to enable it. I did look in the preview settings on a gut feeling, but missed it completely anyway.
Thanks,
Rudi
Please enable this option:
Power BI Desktop--> File --> Options and Settings --> Options --> Preview Features--> Check the option 'Custom Report Themes'.
After enabling this option, restart Power BI.
It should work.
