Bar, pie or donut graphs are always shown in one color. Textures can be used to distinguish categories within the graph. A good presentation can be seen in Nordnet brand library https://www.nordnet.se/brand/graphic-elements/

RE: Textured or pattern fill bar or pie graphs

Having the ability to add textures to graphs is essential to improve the accessibility of dashboards, especially for color blind people.

Add division lines in pie charts and textured/pattern fills to all charts would be great!

RE: Textured or pattern fill bar or pie graphs

I am hoping we can bring some light to this topic again, with the thought of those who are color-deficient (colorblind). Having the Colorblind palette in PowerBI is great, but if we could add a pattern to each bar in a Bar Chart, or each slice of a Pie Chart, etc. that would help our colleagues who need just a little extra help, and ease, in reading our charts.

I hope to see the textual features for bar charts to identify among bright colors.

I am missing this feature since I was using it in excel and it provides additional variety of styles that I can use for my data.

My hope would be to put together a bar graph where confirmed items are solid and projected items are just outlined but share the same color.

This would help to highlight data without having to use so many colors that water down the reports. It is available in Excel and would be a great enhancement to Power BI.

Textures available for all visuals would help so much for our colorblind users.

Maps are our top priority but I think this could be a nice addition to all visualizations.
