Aligning multiple visuals

Good Morning 1. I have 3 matrix visuals on a page with date and hour on the columns with the drill down on the columns. Is there a way to clearly define the difference between the dates either addin...

    Hi maurcoll​,

    For the first point, you can try adding vertical gridlines in the matrix formatting, but Power BI doesn't natively let you apply a separator only between date groups while ignoring the hour-level columns.

    A couple of workarounds:

    • Use conditional formatting or a separate header measure to make the date groups more distinguishable.
    • If you need a clear gap or separator after the last hour of each date, you may need a custom visual or a different layout, as the native matrix has limited control over column-group borders.

    For the second point, Power BI doesn't support one scrollbar controlling multiple matrix visuals natively. Each matrix manages its own scrolling independently.

    If all three matrices need to stay aligned, the best option is usually to combine them into a single matrix where possible, using measures to display the different values. That way, the columns and scrolling remain synchronized.
