Power BI Report Server Branding

[AgnesB]

Hi,

After I updated the Power BI Report server to September 2022, a new button and drop down menu appeared when the current size of the browser window is not large enough to write out the full path and report name. Until the May 2022 Version, the report name is not written out fully in case the complete path is too long, and gets cut down with "..." . This seemed to have been changed from September, as now the report name is written out completely, and the path itself is shortened to a new menu with a new button "[...]" and a dropdown for navigation, see screenshot. This only appears if the browser window is not large enough to show the full path. 

My issue is that i can't seem to change the color of this new button or the color of the dropdown navigation behind it. 

I have changed all the previuosly known json parameters in the colors file of my branding to anything but black and the button / dropdown menu still stays black.

How should I change the color of this specific button? Is there a new json command that did not exist previously which is controlling it? Or is it a bug?

This issue has been fixed by the January 2023 Power BI Report Server Release. The formatting of the dropdown button in the header reacts now to one of the branding settings.

We have found an element in the resulting CSS called breadcrumbs-list-btn that seem to define the background color of this specific button.
But our problem is that no change of the documented parameters in the colors.json seem to have an influence on this color. So that might be an issue of how the colors.json is merged with the LESS stylesheet at the moment. Or is there a way to change it in the brand.less directly?

Hi @AgnesB ,

When the brand package is uploaded, the server extracts the appropriate name/value pairs from the colors.json file and merges them with the master LESS stylesheet, brand.less. This LESS file is then processed and the resulting CSS file is served to the client. All colors in the stylesheet follow the six-character hexadecimal representation of a color.
