The current card visual forces users to overlap elements or waste copious amounts of time creating custom visuals. The new card feature should give users the ability to create multiple cards in a single container and provide a greater level of customization.

RE: Epic idea: New card visual
This type of simple formatting feature should be included by default. It would greatly increase our use of Power BI.
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
It happens in virtually every project I attempt to complete with PowerBI, I start out excited about the potential of the visual until I hit the catch, which is a lack of formatting/functionality that is available in even the most basic freeware alternatives.
I'm not sure what the issue is, but nobody who has any experience putting together reports in a professional setting would ever release the KPI visual without the ability to change the size of metric.
The fact that PowerBI is developed by the industry authority only makes the current state of the program that much more baffling.
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
Please allow users to change the font size. It is HUGE and takes up too much valuable space. Thanks!
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
Please make this change. It is painful to watch the font size.
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
Evidently, this was a feature, but it may have been removed in a later build. Reference this demonstration video from Tuesday, January 31, 2017 at the 5:06 mark: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-tutorial-kpi/
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
unbelievable this isn't already an option
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
The font for the KPI indicator is huge and does not shrink proportionally as you change the size of the visual. This greatly limits the real estate on the page to accommodate this visual.
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
I think the visual should have a "hide when blank () " Option. Requires clear communication during development:
A message box should apper in the editor (1 visual is currently hidden because the value is blank and the "hide if blank" option is on.)
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
is there another visual out there like KPI that can be sized appropriately?
RE: Epic idea: New card visual
I have just created an invoice for a client. Using cards was the best way to layout single values that appear under my table of line items eg. Sub total, less marketing costs, grand total, Account number, account code. But the lack of alignment means it looks a bit second rate.
