    In my dashboard I have a slicer which filters a large list of names. The default color for the text of a selected item seems to be black. My background color is black, so when an item is selected it makes it difficult to see. I have the color for my font set to be turquoise so unselected items show up fine. It would be nice to set the font color for selected items.

    This seems like it should be a basic function, especially with the filter pane's ability to be customized. Why is this not an option?

    How is it still not fixed?? Everybody in my organization is confused why, when selecting filters, black/greyed out means selected

    Please add this feature. Its very useful specially when building reports that brings out a company's brand color when selected.

    This REALLY needs to be added now the Field Parameters are becoming prevalent. Please consider adding this to the backlog, Microsoft!

    This would be great. We all know the value in a good looking report.

    Such a simple addition, I can't believe it's not a thing yet

    Yes, this would be a big value add to ensure consistency with the custom look and feel of dashboards I and my team put together.

    This really needs implementing - especially with the new Field Parameters feature - with more slicers on the page we need more options!
