Please add Collapse/Expand buttons in the Matrix Visualizations. Otherwise when all fields are expanded by default the user would have to scroll a lot to find what they are looking for. I could add a slicer to take user to the data they are looking for but then the rest of the data in the matrix disappears and more specifically the overall totals change!Expand/Collapse buttons would keep the overall totals as intended and totals for other fields while allowing the user to only expand the field they are interested in. Also ability to do conditional formatting for a specific field in the matrix would be nice. Thanks!

With our November update of Power BI Desktop, you can now expand/collapse matrix row headers. You can read more on our blog: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-november-2018-feature-summary/#expandCollapse A few people were asking about column headers. As some of the work involved for column headers is different than row headers, we want to understand how many users specifically need/want column header support as well. If you need column header support, please vote on this idea that I added to UserVoice: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200/suggestions/36038050

Please add this feature to both Table and Matrix. Similar to Excel column groupings by columns.

In Excel the feature is "Group, Ungroup". It would also be helpful to be able to create groups within a group (subgroups). Again, match Excel column grouping functionalities.

RE: Matrix +/- Collapse/ Expand Buttons

A slicer to select the level would be enough for that. Please inform us about the timeline to include this feature. I hope soon we can see this "simple" possibilities (simple base on how easy it is in Excel).

RE: Matrix +/- Collapse/ Expand Buttons

One important feature in this idea is the expanding of a level with just one item below and be able to hide this (because the subtotal and the one item below have the exact same values)
