    Give users the ability to set a theme (either an out-of-the-box or custom theme) as their default for all reports created in Power BI Desktop.

    *** Original idea text below:

    A dedicated place to set defaults for all Power Bi visuals. If I always want my titles to be 15pt font, and my general font to be 12 pt, I currently have to set on each visual.

    RE: Set default theme

    Not only the default, but how about a way of changing all fonts on a report?

    RE: Set default theme

    Set default by visual and if you change anything all pages that report update

    Yet another reason I continue to use Excel as my primary reporting UI. 20 years of a mature UI, well worked out with years of revisions.

    RE: Set default theme

    It's astounding that you can't set a workbook default font.

    RE: Set default theme

    indeed. Ideal way as I see it, to have preferences in file menu and change default values of any setting, format etc...

    RE: Set default theme

    can this not be made to import with the theme at least please, changing the font on every visual is very time consuming
