Theme - Data label colors

Hi Everyone,

 

I am working on theme file however I am not able to find the JSON syntax for data label color.

 

I am using below code and labelColor is not working when I import the theme file in pbix. However, font size is working fine.

 

"columnChart":{
            "*":{
                "legend":[{
                    "show":true,
		    "fontSize":8
                }],
                "labels":[{
                   "show":true,
		   "fontSize":8,
		   "labelColor":"#F17925"
                }]
            }
        }

I have also tried different syntax like fillLabel, fillColor, Color, etc. but didn't work. Do you guys know the correct syntax? I have already visited theme gallery, but didn't find this kind of syntax in any themes.

 

Also if someone shares the correct syntax for each property (like title, series setting, etc.), appreciate it.

Thank you.

 

Regards,

Niket Talati

Try "color":{"solid":{"color":"#F17925"}}.

 

An extremely helpful person created the Report Theme Generator, which is really helpful for figuring out how you're supposed to set some of these properties. I hope they keep updating it, because there's a bunch of other ones I can't figure out either!

Thanks for your replay. However I am already aware about this blog and gone through several times. But still can't find any details on mentioned issue.

Try "color":{"solid":{"color":"#F17925"}}.
