Enable selection of the default scroll position for the x-axis on a chart. For example, on a line chart with dates as the x-axis, when not all of the data can display in the view at once, the scroll defaults to the beginning/left end of the x-axis and the most recent dates are at the far end causing the end user to always have to scroll to see the most recent data. If you could set the visual to default to the right end, then the user would only have to scroll if they wanted to see more history.

Default Scroll Bar Position for Visuals

change default scroll bar position in column charts

If you have a column chart with many time-points on the x-axis then a scroll bar appears on the bottom of the visual. Normally you order your x-axis in a way that the most recent dates appear to the right (at least in countries where you use to write from left to right). If you want to see the mo...

Mobile view trend line graphs

In mobile view, line charts default to showing the leftmost, earliest data on the x-axis. The more meaningful data to most is the recent data on the graph. Users have to scroll right each time to see most recent data. Could the default be set thus for date/time driven x-axes? Or allow a defau...
