Page background colour in focus mode or powerpoint export

Hi

From a published report, I want to use "focus mode" and "share in powerpoint" on a line graph with transparent background.

Here's what the graph looks like on the published report :

When in focus mode or shared in powerpoint, the background is white and the font stays white except for the title :

In PBI Desktop, there's still the option to change the page colour when in focus mode...

....but when i exit focus mode, the background doesn't go back to transparent :

Does anyone know how to change the focus mode or powerpoint share page colour without changing the original visual background colour (transparent in my example) ?

 

Thank you for your help

As you are talking about focus mode and power point embedding, I believe you are looking for an option to embed ONE power bi visual in power point with a specific color but the default background color is white. One workaround that I would suggest you is to create two copies of same visual,

 

one with the color that you want to embed in power point and take the link of that particular visual and embed in power point. In your actual report you can hide this visual from selection pannel.

Second one with transperant background and this visual will be in your actual report.

hi! Thanks for your answer.

Isn't there just a simple setting to change the page colour when in focus mode or the copied visual background colour when used in powerpoint ?
