Does anyone have a working json file that updates the font and font size? The defaults are horrific. I've tried the theme generator and example from curbal but neither actually work.
Hi @cdknuth,
Maybe you can refer to following link which told about custom theme elements.
Custom Report Theme JSON Property settings in Tables/Matrix

Thanks, Xiaoxin. I've tried these formats and neither work.

HI @cdknuth,
You can try to use below json formula and replace bold part with a valid font name.
{
"name":"Jan 2018 Theme",
"dataColors":[
"#0069aa",
"#4f8dc2",
"#9ab7da",
"#cedaec",
"#00c762",
"#fbe7a6",
"#ff544a",
"#f89a1c",
"#545451"
],
"background":"#FFFFFF",
"foreground":"#545451",
"tableAccent":"#4f8dc2",
"visualStyles":{
"*":{
"*":{
"*":[
{
"fontFamily":"Segoe UI"
}
]
}
}
}
}

Thanks for the attempt, but this still doesn't work for me. Perhaps I need a newer version.
HI @cdknuth,
Maybe you can try to use below json file, I package code and confirm it works on my side.
