Pinned tile doesn't keep theme color

[Mardin]

Hello,

I am pinning 3 visuals from 3 different reports to a Dashboard (1 from each report).

All 3 reports use the same Dark blue Theme.json file.

Pinned visual 1 (Line chart) carry over its dark blue theme colors

Pinned visual 2 (Bar/Line combo chart) carry over its dark blue theme colors

Pinned visual 3 (Bar/Line combo chart) DOESNT and show ugly green, yellow and red colors.

What am I missing? Why is the last visual not carrying over the theme colors from its report?

Hi,

i need to show a dashboard on tv screens for colleagues in my company, data needs to refresh at least each 15' so i need to pin the single tiles to my dashboard in order to don't do that manually.

when i pin single tiles, 'keep current theme' options doesn't show (like other users), any one has some news about this issue?

like last users has suggested, i tried to export the .json file of my desktop report with 7zip, start a new dashboard, import theme for the dashboard from .json and then pin single tile but nothing change and no theme seem to be applied to the dashboard.

only way to keep my tiles format is to pin the entire report page but then i lose the auto visual update function.

Hi @Mardin,

Could you try re-pining visual 3 and make sure the "Keep current theme" option is select for Tile Theming to see if it works?

I'm having the same issue with colors changing on my dashboards, but I don't see the theming options when I go to pin visuals.  The window looks exactly the same as your screencap but the options in the bottom left are not there.  Why would that option not be showing up?

Can someone please update status on tile theme window?  It is NOT visible when trying to pin please advise

I can't see the tile theming option either. I hate the deafult theme. Why is this simple thing so hard?

Frustrated user!!!

Was this ever resolved? I don't have the Theme Option either.

Sorry, for me it worked when I applied a Dashboard Theme to my Dashboard -before- trying to pin the item.

Can we get an answer to this?  I don't have the tile theme selection in the bottom corner either, HELP

Have you ever seen a situation where a user has selected the "Keep Current Theme" option and still had the pinned visuals change color (outside of the theme) when the dashboard refreshes?

[Mardin]

That did the trick! I feel so stupid now, I didn't see the "Keep theme" selection when pinning 🙂
