Theme on dashboard and application: black, but how to control data bar color?

When I pin a chart on report to dashboard I choose "Use destination's theme" because I want dashboard to a be black theme and report a white.

 

But the problem is that after this I cannot control the color of the data bars: they are default turquoise on the dashboard.

 

If I try to define dashboard's theme, there are only the main controls for an overall theme like black or white, but no other controls for data bars etc.

 

How can I have orange data bars on dashboard? The overall theme of the dashboard must be black and set on dashboard since there are many publishers who pin to this dashboard.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You need to change the bar chart color to orange in Power BI Desktop, then publish to Service.

Pin the bar chart to a dashboard and configure the custom dashboard theme. Just configure the background and tile background as black.

If it doesn’t meet your requirement, could you please show some screenshots?
