Posted on by mertadsay

Hello, I am using dark background color on my app but the modern table control's background color is not transparent it's white. So, i couldn't get a dark view when using table control and it has no background color or fill property. Is there any way to change background of the modern table control?

Currently, the Modern Table Control in Power Apps does not provide a direct property to change the background color. However, you can try the following workarounds to achieve a dark theme effect:

🔹 Workarounds to Change Modern Table Background Color

1️⃣ Place a Dark Rectangle Behind the Table

Add a rectangle shape (Insert → Icons → Rectangle).

Set its Fill property to your desired dark color:

RGBA(0, 0, 0, 1) // Black background

Send it to the back (Right-click → Reorder → Send to Back).

2️⃣ Use a Custom Themed Gallery Instead

Since the Modern Table lacks styling options, you can use a Gallery as an alternative:

Insert a Flexible Gallery instead of the Table.

Bind it to your data source.

Set TemplateFill of the Gallery to:

RGBA(30, 30, 30, 1) // Dark Gray Background

Customize fonts, colors, and borders for a modern look.

3️⃣ Modify the Table Using a PCF Control (Advanced)

If you're using a Canvas App with Power Apps PCF controls, you can create a custom PCF Table component with styling flexibility, allowing a dark background.

Hi, I dont want to use gallery or pcf component. And the first workaround is not working because table control is not transparent. So, does not matter the color of background container or rectangle.
