I completely agree with you. I've been working for decades with other BI tools, mostly Oracle's, but Power BI offers so much to create stunning designs that I don't think I can ever go back.

A very useful video, cause aesthetics matters are often difficult to deal with, and we all have the common issue to deliver aesthetical stunning reports. Well done!

Thanks Ruth, great time saving tip. Haven't tried yet but if you store the background images in an Azure public folder, its possible to update the images without having to edit the reports.

Yes, there are advantages and disadvantages with both cases. Choose wisely according to your requirements;)

6:16 and we love you for this tricks! ❤️. I have been using the background feature for a while. Actually, it helps to improve performance, less objects to render on the canvas..so, it saves time. But, I didn't know about the theme query. Thanks!!

Thanks Ruth for this outstanding video, I can't tell you how many times I've watched it over and over again, great job. I have a quick question, I have been trying to recreate the same plain background just like you have it in the video but can't figure it out, do you mind helping me out? Also, after making the modification in visual studio, how did you get to apply it to Power BI? Thanks.

I think people really overlook this aspect of PBI. I think I spend more time on Navigation and look than anything else!

Everything is important. For example a very slow report won’t be used no matter how pretty it is. A good balance between technical and design is the best approach in my opinion!

A warning though. Backgrounds creates a pleasing first glance but just adds clutter in all other scenarios. Great for front pages in apps, not so much so for actual reports. Consider using a uniform color that separates visuals and creates a dark mode feel.

I am afraid we will have to agree to disagree 😂😂, but that is what design is all about! The right background will do wonders to a report.

The unfortunate thing is that base64 URL's have a limit to the file size. But it's perfect for encoding small images, like icons. Ruth, did you know that you can infuse your theme file with additional fully custom icons (for your conditional formatting)?
