There seems to have been a change in the Power BI service that is providing and undisreable effect on the "Chiclet Slicer" that now produces a tool tip that has infomation that I do not want in the popup box. Yes I have turned of the tool tips and everything else that I could find and had copliot try to help can you maybe expose this property so that it can be turned off?

Great initiative—this new space will really help bring the Power BI custom visuals community together. For beginners, start with the step-by-step tutorial and GitHub samples, and use the API docs for deeper work.

Gantt chart Milestone issue-
I am trying to display both Gantt and milestone data in a custom Gantt chart. For milestones, I only have an end date and no start date. However, in the tooltip, the end date is being shown under the start date field, which is incorrect. Could anyone suggest a way to resolve this issue?Gantt version- 3.0.12.0

We have been successfully using the Text Slicer (in Preview) in several reports recently. We've noticed, beginning sometime late last week or early this week, that the 'Dismiss button' is no longer removing the text filter when selecting the Dismiss button. The text being filtered remains in the slicer. It does go away if we refresh the browser on that page, but it is no longer removing the text in the slicer when using the Dismiss button next to the text in the slicer. Any ideas what may be causing this or if it will get fixed (not sure if this has already been reported)?

Hi,
I’m experiencing an issue with the Microsoft Gantt custom visual in Power BI.
Current scenario:
- In Power BI Desktop, the available version of the Gantt visual is 3.0.12.0
- However, the latest version released is 3.4.5.0
- I am using the Microsoft Gantt visual imported into my reportIssue description:
In Power BI Desktop:
- The visual respects the alphabetical sorting of my “Berth” field (ship berth name)
- Everything renders correctlyIn Power BI Service:
- The sorting is not respected anymore (it appears unsorted or differently sorted)
- The visual quality (resolution/sharpness) is noticeably worseSteps:
1. Sort the visual by berth name (alphabetical)
2. Publish to Power BI Service
3. Open the report → sorting breaks and rendering degradesExpected behavior:
- Sorting should be consistent between Desktop and Service
- Rendering quality should remain the sameAdditional notes:
- This seems related to differences in visual versions between environments
- I can provide screenshots showing the discrepancyHas anyone experienced this? Is there a known limitation or workaround?
Thanks.

For sorting create index column and one calculated column where index concate with your task field and use
REPT(UNICHAR(8203)to hide the indexing in front of your task name.

Hello All,
I am facing issue using Microsoft Bullet Chart Version 2.4.2.0, I am not able to adjust height of the visual. Whenever I drag lower or upper edge of the visual border to adjust height or try adjusting through the properties, the box height changes, but the visual remains at constant or fixed height.
Can someone please help getting it fixed or suggest how to have this feedback share with Microsoft?
Thanks

I am using the Microsoft Gantt 3.0.12.0. I have added the Task, Start Date, and Duration. My issue is with the Duration. I have a Duration field in my data set (specified in number of weeks). Because of how the data is that I received, all projects have a Start Date and Duration, but they do not all have an End Date. Because of this, I'm trying to use my Start Date field as the Start Date and my Duration field as the Duration. However, when I add my Duration field to the Duration slot for the visual, it is trying to aggregate it and do a "count" rather than simply use the value. Because of this, all of my projects have the correct start date, but only last a single day because they all have a single value for their duration. How can I get the visual to use the numerical value specified in the Duration field rather than trying to count it?
Thanks!

Description:
I am using the Timeline Slicer custom visual in Power BI.
In published reports (Power BI Service), I am experiencing a rendering issue when the timeline axis exceeds the visual width and horizontal scrolling is required.Issue:
As soon as horizontal scrolling is used inside the Timeline Slicer, the entire visual becomes blurry / out of focus.
This issue does not occur in Power BI Desktop, only in the published report.Expected behavior:
The visual should remain sharp and correctly rendered even when scrolling horizontally.Question:
Is this a known limitation or bug of the Timeline Slicer visual?
Are there recommended settings or workarounds (e.g. visual size, zoom level, browser configuration)?
