We need the option to control the color of the slicer checkbox when an item is selected. The default has a dark color that is almost not visible when using a dark background color for the slicer.

RE: Design option for checkbox of slicer

As the person responsible for setting the JSON theming of reports within my team and having worked very closely with our web accessibility team to get as much sorted as we can, this really is a ridiculous oversight at this point having been searching for a solution to this issue for at least 3 years.It is impossible to set a clear colour contrast for selections. I'd imagine this is another thing that clearly isn't WCAG compliant, so why hasn't it been implemented. We are constantly getting complaints over our 'design choices', but the cause is the inability to get these little things over the line and added into the base program. Power BI is my organisations tool of choice, but it's effectively still in BETA and it shows.

Wow! This idea was created nearly a decade ago and still hasn't been fixed? I have watched a number of the monthly update videos where Microsoft brags about new features. I will be boycotting future videos unless it includes this simple fix. As someone suggested, at least make the option to match text color available. If third-party slicers can do it, there is no excuse.

I thought it's obvious thing with so many elements around whose colours can be set. Seems like a nonsense.

We need to be able to format the colors of the unselected and selected checkboxes and also the color of the checkbox outline.
