Report Themes not an option in Power BI Desktop (October 2017) edition

[xantari]

 The option for report themes indicated here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-report-themes

Is not available not available in Power BI Desktop (October 2017). Got this one for the on premise Power BI server. Whats going on?

It says it should have been available since March 2017 version of Power BI desktop.

Did you find a solution for this?

The "RS" version of Power BI Desktop is not the same as the standard Power BI Desktop application. Therefore, it may not be available. Or, you may just not have it turned on.

It is not there.

I think MS needs to undergo a name change to Power BI Desktop. Instead of calling it Power BI Desktop, how about Power BI Desktop On Premise Edition (October 2017).

Then all the documentation should get updated to reflect that.

For instance the page referenced in this post which indicates it is available in Power BI Desktop should have notes about it not available in Power BI Desktop On Premise Edition.

Hi, so there is no solutiong for this is it? My PowerBI Desctop doesn't have that Custom Color Thems box to select under Options and Preview Features. How can I get it there?

I would suggest you add it as an idea on Power BI Ideas forum to improve Power BI on this feature.
