"Favorites" -- expand and/or clarify how to use it


At the top of the menu in the Power BI Service is a "Favorites" section. When I click it, I see the following message: "You don't have any favorites yet ... You can favorite any of your content to find it quickly here. Just click the [star] and it becomes a favorite." So I started by looking ...

Date formatting in date slicer


The improved date slicer is great. However, when using it in Between/Before/After mode, I want the dates to be displayed in the same way as in List/Dropdown mode. (That is, the way I've formatted them in my Power BI data model.) For example, we format all of our dates like '2017-03-31'. But in B...

Set the data model's default Format, for each Data Type


For example: when the Power BI data model first creates a column with Data Type = 'Date', by default that column is formatted like 'Wednesday, March 14, 2001 (dddd, MMMM d, yyyy)'. Then, I always go to the Modeling tab, and use the Format drop-down to change it to '2001-03-14 (yyyy-MM-dd)'. Ins...

One Bookmark for All Report Pages


AKA "report-level bookmarks," in addition to just page-level bookmarks. I would like the option, when creating a bookmark, for that bookmark to "remember" the report page from which the bookmark was created and the filters/selections applied on that page...PLUS the filters/selections applied on ...

Apply field formatting to row headers


In a matrix visual, I have multiple measures, and I've turned on "Show on rows," so that each measure appears in a row rather than in a column. Now, when I apply field formatting with "Apply to header" = 'On', the field formatting does not get applied to the row header. I expected it would. Ple...

Page View = 'Fit to Width', but not wider than actual width


I like the 'Fit to Width' option, but I wish there was an option to make it "max out" at the actual width. For example, say I have a report page whose size is 900 x 600 pixels, and I'm on a screen that is 2560 x 1440. If I maximize Power BI (Desktop or service) on my screen, then it will displ...

"Change Source..." for Redshift data sources


In Power BI Desktop, in the "Data source settings" screen, I'd like the "Change Source..." button to work for Redshift data sources. So that I can quickly switch between dev / prod Redshift environments, and such. Like we can for some other types of data sources.

Turn "Text Slicer Search" On/Off, Using Custom Report Theme


For a slicer on a text field, you can enable "Search" on the slicer. Personally, I would like the "Search" to be enabled, by default. Maybe not everyone does. But what would be great is if we could use our .json custom report theme file to configure whether the "Search" is enabled or disabled, b...

Enable +/- Buttons for Expand/Collapse, in Custom Report Theme


Love the new +/- buttons. I want to enable them by default, in my report theme! But I can't, so far. Would like it added to the "rowHeaders" card, here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-report-themes (In general, the set of formatting options that can be configured in custom rep...
