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.

Please add color formatting for the horizontal slicers - seems quite basic and I'm surprised this is still not available.

It has now been 4 years since someone raised this as a feature improvement and with 294 votes in this forum only - surely it is something that can be done now!

Please get this done. It's crazy that after so many years we still can't change the color of selected items, fonts, and check boxes in the slicer visual.

waiting for this feature and more other features in slicers (like adding pictures, changing the shape of the horizontal slicers, ...etc)

Please make the change. Color formatting is a basic requirement for dashboarding.

The color for all item states should have an option to be changed.
