Format Painter not working with new update
Hi,
I updated the power BI version released in October and since then, we realized that the format painter isn't working. This makes formatting a real problem. Any solutions?
Hi Anonymous ,
I test with a few scenarios but the format painter seems not works for type custom visuals. (official visuals[same type and different type]: succeed, official to custom: fail, custom visuals[same type and different type]: fail)
According to the test result, I think the format painter may not work on custom visuals.

Hi Seth ,
I really appreciate your help.
I haven't used any custom colors. I just used the card visual across a page with different visuals interacting with it (something I have been doing in various reports for a while to highlight the key numbers), and when I tried just copying the format from one to another, I saw that the paintbrush icon which should show up on clicking the format painter is not showing up, and this happened during the first report I started working on after the update.
Any ideas on what might be causing this?
