Visual difference between desktop and service for dropdown slicer selection border
Hi BIanon,
Thank you for your update.
As per my understanding, Power BI currently does not provide a direct setting to modify the border colour specifically around the selected value area of a dropdown slicer. The available border settings apply either to the entire visual or to the dropdown items after expansion, but not to the selection area itself.
Given this limitation, we kindly request you to submit feedback to Microsoft. Since this specific customisation is not available, your feedback can help highlight the requirement for this feature. You may submit your suggestion through the Power BI Ideas platform:

Hi BIanon,
Thank you for your update.
Since the slicer is utilising a custom JSON theme, it would be prudent to test whether the issue originates from the theme file.
Open Power BI Desktop.Navigate to View → Themes → Select a built-in Power BI theme (e.g., Default).Publish the report to Power BI Service.Verify whether the slicer border appears consistent.
If the issue is resolved, it indicates that the problem is related to how the custom JSON theme is applied in Power BI Service. In such a case, modifications to the theme file may be required.

Hello again,
I have tried with a couple of custom themes downloaded from the web as well as in a blank report using the default theme and the issue is consistent across all of these solutions.
This issue is affecting both me and all other members of my team. I am on the newest release of PBI, they're both one release behind.
