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.

My customers ask for this simple thing, and I can't deliver. Please, Bill Gates, make this happen :)

Could definitely use this feature update, it impacts a lot of visuals.

Its very complicated task, add a color picker to change the selected color value...

...Still need votes? Please Power BI team, allow for formatting of selected items in a slicer.

Being able to format slicers should have been part of the design from the beginning. Many companies' color palettes may have a dark theme, and this is not helping.

When will this be addressed? We love PowerBi but this is not helping with the aesthetic of the report and is confusing for business users.
