[Power BI] Custom Formatting for Shapes and Buttons ⚡

[@bhavinmamtora]

Hi, the video is very helpful. Could you please let me know which version of power bi are you using, i am getting different formatting options and no option of Edit Text

[@Jonathon_Silva]

I was using the September 2021 version of Power BI for this video. The new format pane has the same options, but you will need to navigate to the Style tab, then select Text.

Hi could you pls tell how to put a custom button on top of a shape and stick together and also how to put gradient colour effect into that Button. For example put a Back button on top of rectangle shape , both having same colour and that botton colour bit gradient dip

[@Jonathon_Silva]

Hi Srinibas, by using the Selection Pane, you can multi-select the items you want to group together by right clicking or using the ellipses. If you would like to add a gradient either, you can navigate to the format pane and select Icon, then use the fx property to apply a gradient based on a specific value or measure.

Can I use shapes as a background and show my data on cards placed over it

[@Jonathon_Silva]

Yes, you could place a shape behind a card visual to essentially use as a background, however, you would likely want to disable the background of the card visual or set the transparency level at a higher percentage.
