We generally show help icons as images in the dashboard. If we can have the hyperlink option on this help icon it would be great.

Hyperlink option is already available on the text object, same can be present on the image control.

I think there are some duplicates of this idea... I wish they could just bang this one off as a quick win!

RE: Allow hyperlinks on the images

Yet another basic feature that Tableau offers and PBI has overlooked. When can we expect to see this released?

It seems to be such a basic function. Why Microsoft Power BI has not address this dire need from the users? Please please research on this function. Thank you!!

RE: Allow hyperlinks on the images

My users are into slick and glittery. I can't give them a list of three text titles for more information, no, it has to be pictures. Boxes. Something pretty. This data nerd rails against the issue, but that doesn't change the need.

RE: Allow hyperlinks on the images

We need this, too. Agree that it should be a basic feature. Can't believe it's not implemented already.

RE: Allow hyperlinks on the images

Could we please have an update on this? It's been over two years now, we're currently stuck with using text next to an image. It'd be great to have URLs on images, e.g. help; back button; other reports. Would also be helpful if said hyperlinks opened in the same tab, or better still you had the option for it opening in a new tab or the same tab.
