Unable to enable background show via JSON theme

Hi all,

 

I have been building a JSON theme recently, and at one point when loading the theme I accidentally hit a template theme that disabled the background on charts.

 

When I have then gone to import my theme it has changed everything except the background on the charts, which have all remained switched off. Furthermore when i switch them on they show as the default tranparency 50% even though I have explicitly stated in the file for it to be 0 - here is the JSON code I am using - am i missing something?

	"hundredPercentStackedBarChart":
		{"*":
			{													
			"background": 	[{
						"show": true,
						"color": {"solid": {"color": "#FFFFFF"}},
						"transparency": 0
						}]

 ( the JSON file is much larger but I have just pasted the relevant part - also the issue persists for every visual and the code remains the same on each one)

Need Help

    Hi  Anonymous ,

    You can try the following forms:

    " hundredPercentStackedBarChart": {
                 "*": {
                "background": [{ "show": {
                        "expr": {
                            "Literal":{
                                "Value": "true"
                            }
                        }
                    },
                "color": { "solid": { "#FFFFFF" } },
                "transparency": 0
            }]

      Hi Liu Yang,

       

      Thanks for your suggestion, I have tried this and it loads into the report OK but unfortunately does not work for turning on the background of the visual.
