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.

With dark themes conquering the world, this is a really annoying problem

When I create in power bi desktop, at least shows a white click in a selected items but, when I publish my report to pbi services it turns black, which is really annoying! I'm having troubles in my job because of that :/

Please vote in this basic change!

when there are only 2 options, when one of the button is selected, then it is hard to identify the button is selected or not.
