Card Formatting

[lenafherold]

Hello,

Does Power BI have a format painter-type tool for styling visuals (in my case, cards)? I have many card visuals on a dashboard that I would like to format identically, and it would be great if I didn't have to manually style each one, but rather copy the format of one card to all remaining cards.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @lenafherold ,

You could try Format Painter  in Power BI Desktop.

The following Formatting Options are copied when using the Format Painter:

–  All Background options.

–  Title: All options apart from the actual text.

–  Data Labels: All options except Display Units & Decimal Places.

–  Data Colors: Default Color and, if the same field is used to drive color, copy the color/value assignments.

–  X-Axis & Y-Axis: All options apart from Start/End.

–  Legend: All options apart from the actual text.

–  Borders: All options.

–  Slicers: All options.

–  Sentiment Colors (for Waterfall Charts): All options.

–  If options don’t exist in the target visual (e.g. copying X-Axis options from a Scatter Chart onto a Column Chart) then they are just dropped.

The following is a sample ;

before use :(two card visual)

Afther use Format Painter:

Oh wow. How did I miss that?

I don't think there's any sort of tool like that but Alternatively, you can select multiple visuals by holding down Ctrl (or click and hold to use the rectangle selection) and then format them all at the same time.
