Hi Anonymous : Xiaoxin Sheng,
Thank you for your reply and teach me!

>1. Submit an idea to add support to turn on/off the color formatting options on raw visuals.
sorry, idea is this site (https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/)?

>2. Design a custom visual that similar to raw visuals, then you can remove the color formatting parts when you coding the formula.
I am making custom visual now (pbiviz), "color" is just example, so I want to disable text/dropdown/color/toggle formatting.
I see, CustomVisual can't "disable" some formatting
I found this thread.

maybe dm-p said also...
But can"remove" some formatting! it is nice! How can I remove the formatting parts?

HI Anonymous,

#1, Yes, that is the official site of power bi ideas, sorry I forgot to share the link to the idea forum.

#2, These parts can be customized as the following tutorial, you not need to add all the options that raw visual defined.
