It would be even more useful if we could select multiple columns at once for all functionality -- renaming part of the columnName, change Type, rearranging, etc.

This is absolutely ABSURD that we have to do this manually.

ABSURD

This feature should have been included already - common sense

It would be nice to allow the public of a report, as a way of interacting with the data, to be able to hide and unhide columns from a clustered Column. Switch visibility of columns on or off.

Just spent over 30 minutes deleting fields. Power BI should make creating reports and dashboards easier and not more tedious.

RE: select multiple columns for hiding/deleting in PowerBI Desktop

it is so frustrating to have to make 3 mouse clicks for every single field i want to hide in my report. please allow Ctrl+click to select multiple!! it is just an intuitive thing to be able to do... surprised it still hasn't been addressed.
