Lets take a look.

Slicer styles are available on the Slicer Tools ribbon.

They control the color and style used to display slicers.

To apply a slicer style, go for the slicer and then click one of the thumbnail images.

To illustrate, lets apply the existing dark orange style.

Note that this style uses a yellow gradient with black text to highlight hovered items.

Lets make our own version of this style that displays hovered buttons in green with white text.

By design, you cant modify a built-in style directly.

If you right-tap the style in the menu, youll see the Modify item is dimmed.

We need to first duplicate the style.

To duplicate a style, right-click and choose Duplicate from the menu.

Now, lets name the new style Custom Orange.

Hovered items control the look of buttons when a mouse cursor hovers over them.

When we click OK, nothing happens - the slicer looks the same as before.

Thats because our new style is not yet applied to any slicer.

Custom styles will appear in the upper left of the styles list.

Just select a slicer and tap the custom style in the ribbon.

Now we see the green hover effect.

To update a custom style, right-hit the custom style on theribbonand choose Modify.

With that done, we see a green hover effect on the last button.

To apply the custom style to another slicer, just go for the slicer and poke the style.

Any changes you make to a custom style will automatically apply to all slicers using that style.
