Power BI desparately needs to support:

Synchronised Drill down across multiple charts with the same hierarchy on the same page (or across the report)

It is extremely annoying, if I have seveal graphs, to have to drill down or up on each of them individually. A feature that allows you to synchronise the drill down state selected charts would be make the user interface incredibly friendly!

Please add this. It is a must have feature when designing reports.

Not being able to sync drill downs of the same hierarchy across multiple visuals severely limits the usefulness of the drill down feature. Please add a syncing feature to the drill down, as it is a very common use case.

Agreed, I have two visuals (Current year / Prior Year) sharing a hierarchy of business unit - sub category - individual stock items

it would be great to be able to drill down on one visual and the other matches.

I was shocked to find drill downs were not linked between visuals. this would be a great addition

We would love to have this. As it is, I may end up working around this by adding tabs in the report that the report designer can "pre-drill" for the viewer.

RE: Synchronised Drill Down across multiple charts with same hierarchy!

Would be very convenient to show numbers over time (in a matrix visual) and visualize them (in a line or area chart) on the same report page. Without being synchronized when drilling in the time axis such pages get confusing as matrix and chart are not in sync re time drill level. Can think of as having one master visual controlling the drill in itself and all other linked visuals on same page.
