Report colors changing when published
I'm having this issue as well. I have a very in-depth report with 28 pages. Certain pages have random line graphs and bar graphs where one color selection (in my case, both are charcoal gray) is going rogue and changing to beige once embedded/published. All are still normal colors in PBI Desktop.
Work around until this issue gets developer's attention: Edit the dashboard color directly on Power BI Service and save. That way the color stays even after published. This works for me because the dataset is auto freshed. If I make any major change to the original Desktop version and publish, all changes I made to the Service version is gone and here I go again...
I have the same issue and your solution worked for me. Once the dashboard is published on the bi service, then I edit colors again (even though they look the same), then I resave it and republish it from the powerbi service. After that, the export link ' colors look correct.
This is Still happening. Even in July 2020.
Yep - I'm experiencing the same issue still. When I make the changes in the desktop file and publish, it all looks normal in the service until I update the app. I think the only way around at the moment which others have identified is to make the changes in the service and save it there.
Very annoying it is still happening 2 years later !
