Allow for the creation of a corporate color theme pack. Same principle of styles in Excel: I define a set of styles (colors, fonts, background, format,...) and apply to my report items. For example, let me set the default slicer background color to a suitable shade so that all slicer created start with my default color settings. I would also like to be able to save me color scheme separately so that i can share it with colleagues to create a consistent feel.

Thanks everyone for the votes for theming! This month we finally made our report theming feature generally available: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-august-2018-feature-summary/#Theming Of course, we will continue to iterate and improve on the feature, like we do all our features, so please propose new ideas if there's something specific you'd like us to add.

RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
When wil this be available?
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
Frustrating that I can't provide color-branded visualizations to my stakeholders with ease. Making changes per visualization is extremely tedious! I hope this moves faster than the 'Under Review' to 'Planning' stage-this could be a deal breaker for our power users.
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
Agreed. We need to be able to control color, especially for the visualization types in which color cannot be altered, like the gauge.
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
Can't wait! This will save me a lot of time!
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
Hi @Filip Karadzic, has this been rolled out to production ?
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
It would be great if Power BI supported the same theme format as the ones used by MSFT Office applications. Here is what I mean:
1. Open PowerPoint
2. Click on the DESIGN tab.
3. Under Themes, click the MORE arrow then choose SAVE CURRENT THEME.
** This will save the colour set and font set as a THEME which can be ported.
Here is a link showing these fonts and colour sets I mean: http://imgur.com/vMOKS01
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
Maybe let us define a custom pallet that can be set as the default for both colors and fonts. We must have Branded Reporting that uses Green, Black, Gray, Yellow and 20% shades of each and a specific font (Verdana) for each element. It is too painful to do this on every element of every report you create. It should start with my custom palette/fonts and let me change those if needed.
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
Great to hear that this is now planned as it is really needed. Any indication on timeing? Also will this assist in allowing that field values can be set a standard colour across a whole report rather than having to set up each graph separately.
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
This is "critical" for working with companies and their corporate branding and against competitors! I thought we heard at the "Data Summit" on March 22, 2016 that this was "coming soon"?
Any update on when?
RE: Allow the creation of a Theme Pack
This is huge. If I'm analyzing several metrics and using global slicers, it's really awkward to have the selection on the pie chart be green, and then have the visualization on the map be red. It's okay for things with only a couple instances within one variable, but big businesses that would need to use this in the first place probably have a lot.
