Hi @Pujan 

 

My version:

The Format Painter is valid for visualization with the same formatting options. I did the following tests for your referrence:

 

Copying the formatting of a table visualization to another Table visualization via Format painter.

Copying the formatting of a Stacked column Chart visualization to Scatter chart visualization via Format painter.

Copying the formatting of a Stacked column Chart to a table visualization via Format painter.

The attempt failed. Since the Table visualization does not have x and y axis, the x and yaxis formatting would be dropped.
