Title font size in theme

Hi all,

 

I've created a custom theme in which I'm defining a font size for my visualisation titles.

 

"title": {
"fontSize": "9",
"fontFace": "Segoe UI Semibold",
"color": "#666666"

}

 

When I import this into PBI Desktop, the title font size is coming through as 10.5...

 

Any ideas?

Hi @Andy_T ,

Microsoft reply:

The "title" is a generalized textClass that is used differently across the product. Visuals use the "largeTitle" text class variant, which will increase the font size given by the "title" textClass by 7/6ths. 10.5 is exactly 7/6ths of 9, so this behavior is expected.

The Power BI Theme Documentation details this in a table listing the text classes: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-report-themes#report-theme-json-file-format

If you need to directly only change properties the visual title (and not the other items that inherit from the "title" textClass), you can target the "largeTitle" textClass instead.
