fontColor property in JSON does not work

I've created following JSON Theme:

{
"name": "TEST",
"visualStyles": {
"*": {
"*": {
"*": [
{
"fontSize": 18,
"fontcolor": {
"solid": {
"color": "#FF0000"
}
},
"fontFamily": "Lucida Sans"
}
]
}
}
}
}

 

This Theme styles every element with the font family and size, but the property color does not work. I've tested it wirth a bar and line chart.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Philipp

Hi @Anonymous,

Based on my research, I am afraid you could just chang some formeting of the visual with JSON file, you could refer to this link:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Webinars-and-Video-Gallery/How-to-create-a-Power-BI-theme-with-a-JS...

 And this link:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-report-themes#json-file-element-definitions

Hello @v-danhe-msft,

 

what do you want to change?

Have you an example to set the font color? E.g. for the data labels or x Axis?
