Visual (Area Chart) changing colors when sharing

[Anonymous]

Hello, 

I have created an area chart that shows different colored area depending on running total of different measures. The chart shows exactly how i designed it and want it in the Power BI Desktop application and when I post it to the service, but as soon as I PDF the dashboard or share it via the "schedule" option, the chart colors change. The color change now shows the entire area under the top post line as that color (in this case red) instead of the different bands of colors between each line (red area should only go to yellow line). 

Any idea why this is happening? Again, this only shows in the .PNG, .PDF, and in the preview image in a scheduled distribution, it still shows with the colors I built it with in the Service and the desktop app. 

Thank you!! 

How it looks in the desktop app & service:

What it looks like in .pdf and .png

Hi, @Anonymous 

The above is the stacked area chart right, how did you get the pdf and the png?
Do you click export as pdf in the report screen?  where is the schedule option mentioned above?
Based on my testing, the colors do not change whether printed as pdf or exported as pdf  and other export methods or sharing methods.
Is it possible to provide your sample files?

Please update your desktop version and republish the report and try again to see if the problem disappears.
