The idea is to allow specific conditions of data from a visual to impact the visibility of another visual.

For example if data in one visual greater than X, then hide Visual A.

I understand that such functionality would introduce the need to name visuals in PowerBI -- but this is not different than Excel, and would perhaps introduce the ability to manipulate visuals even further.

Here is a similar idea with more votes. This one is more specific asking for conditional show/hide vs just dynamic (eg. a button).

Show/Hide visuals base on conditions would be great!! just like SSRS has it.

This is what I was looking for too. They need to have the ability show or hide based on the number of results etc. There would be potential for overlaid visuals that show for different types of data.

It would be useful too if internally to visualisations such as the grids parts could be set to hide if they meet certain conditions i.e. A financial column is full of zeros being hidden as non relevant.
