Theme imported from JSON file does not alter Fonts, Title, and color for some visuals

[rperez]

Hi, I'm running the current Dec 2019 Power BI Desktop and started by customizing currrent theme and adding additonal visuals. I'm trying to keep Font sizes, colors, and titles to be standard throughout any report. The Table visual seems to be the only one where the changes made to the JSON file take affect. The other visuals (Matrix, Slicer, and Line Graph) do not seem to take any of the formatting done within the JSON file. Are the setting of background and font for the above visuals Title supported? What am I misssing here. Below is the JSON entry I have for the visuals that are not working, especially title. 

            "pivotTable":{

                "*":{

                    "stylePreset":[{

                        "name":"Default"

                    }],

                    "columnHeaders":[{

                        "fontColor":{"solid":{"color":"#666666"}},

                        "backColor":{"solid":{"color":"#FFFFFF"}},

                        "outline":"Bottom only",

                        "fontSize":9

                    }],

                        "fontSize":10,

                        "fontFamily":"DIN"

                    }]

                    }},

Any help and clarification is appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous 

I've looked over the links previously, but did so again to confirm and compare examples of what i have in my json file. Do not see anything wrong but some examples below, still continue.

Reports produced Sept2019 Desktop

1- Two matrix visuals. One of them, the background changes but not the font. the other one, remains the same.

2- Line Graph colors change based on the position of the imported them palette. Believe this is the expected behavior when custom colors were used in original report.

Reports produced with Dec2019 Desktop

1- Same as #1 above but more consistent.
