    Yeah you guys are right. Happily specifying the fontSize for the container in your theme does seem to take hold in the service even though it has no effect in Desktop. So you can do edit the theme and somewhere inside the "visutalStyles" container add:

     

    	  "kpi":{
		 "*":{
			 "indicator":[
				{
					"fontSize":48
				}
			]
		 }
	  },

    Super annoying that this needs fixing on every report though.

Yeah looks like Anonymous is right. I published a test report without my company's custom theme and there were no problems, but when I republish it after applying the theme I'm seeing the issue again.

I have no solution - but I believe something may have been released to the service which isn't an option for the desktop - namely this font size for the KPI visual.　

　

　

Seems like I can't upload a photo anymore - not my day I guess - so what I see is if you click the KPI - then the paint roller - then Indicator - you'll have a text size there. Which for me is set to 8 - about what it shows as on the screen.　

　

　

　

On the desktop version - this font size is not an option.　

　

　

　

So i'll bet that what's happening is that it's picking up the default size from our custom json file (which is 8 for me) now whereas before it was not doing that.

　

　

　

v-frfei-msft 　- can you investigate with those additional details?

    Good spotting, yes, you can often see in the service what's to come for Desktop. This is one of those things. I have changed the font size for some of the reports.

     

    Still a bit gutted at this seemingly overwhelming attitude of Microsoft - "Look at all the new updates yay! Btw please go and fix all your reports though.."
