Power BI Desktop November update changes app color accent, brings Optimize ribbon

Towards the end of each month, Microsoft introduces the many changes that have been made to its Power BI Desktop variant over the course of that month. With the November edition this time around, the tech giant has unveiled a new color accent, an Optimize ribbon to make the process of report creation easier for users, and more.

The change to a teal color accent was made by the Power BI team, keeping in mind its effect in improving contrast and increasing visibility across the app, making it more accessible for users with visual disabilities. Aside from that, there are a bunch of other new updates surrounding various modules including reporting, modeling, data connectivity, visualizations, and more.
