Is it possible to set default font size for all visualizations in Power BI Desktop?

Hi Sue,

 

Check out the post on creating themes in Power BI.

https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-report-themes/

 

There are plenty of options available, but the JSON code below will set all fonts to 12 pt. Save it as a text file with a .json extension and then load it into Power BI Desktop with the Switch Themes button on the home ribbon.

 

SyntaxEditor Code Snippet

{
	"name": "All Fonts Set to 12 pt",

	"visualStyles":{
		"*":{			
			"*":{
				"*":[{
					"fontSize":12
				}]
				
			}
		}
	}
}

Yours,

Fred

 

I should add, by the way, that this ability was JUST released in September 2017 (so it wasn't available when you first asked).

Hi @Sue,

 

I don't think there is an option to set the default font size for all visualizations in Power BI Desktop currently. Here is a similar idea shared on Power BI Ideas forum. You can vote it up and add your comments there to improve Power BI on this feature. Smiley Happy
