Helper IHow to change Q/A text font
I cant seem to find the option in Desktop and Service to change that white font. I had to change the bg to see the text. This is a published version where the users can type in their query and no option to change anything or set the visuals as it is.
Anything I as an author change the formatting?
Hi New_Folder I think customization options for the Q&A visual in Power BI are quite limited. Currently, there’s no direct way to change the font or style of the text within the Q&A visual. You can only adjust the background color for better visibility, but font customization is not supported.
Thankyou ,Akash_Varuna , for your response.
Hi New_Folder,Thank you for reaching out through the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
In Power BI, the "Ask a Question" visual does not offer direct formatting options for the input text box, including font color, in either Power BI Desktop or Power BI Service. However, you may overcome this limitation by converting the Q&A visual into a standard visual, which will then allow you to apply the desired formatting.
Alternatively, since the input text appears in white, setting a darker background for the visual or the entire report can enhance visibility.

Hi New_Folder,
Kindly try changing the Power BI Desktop theme to the default or create a customised theme to ensure that the required colours are visible in the Q&A visual. After making these changes, publish the report to the service and verify the results.
Alternatively, you may consider reinstalling Power BI Desktop, as this could potentially resolve the issue.
