Adding Comments or Text Boxes in a chart
- 4 years ago
In cloud Power BI, you can add comment to report or to specific slice, but comments are in separeted window. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-comment
I'm currently not using any this visual, but try look on https://zebrabi.com/dynamic-commentary-power-bi/ or https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA104382050
Yes, with tooltip on standard charts, it cannot be exported in pdf. But if you want export to pdf, it will be better use paginated (ssrs) reports.
It not possible any easy way. Probably three points...
-comments to specific drill/slice/data point is possible in cloud Power BI Service, unfortunately still not in on-prem Power BI RS (although it is a very popular feature)
-exists 3rd party visuals for Power BI RS, wchich allow near what you need, but need some backend
-is easy use tooltip which show comment in chart what you want (from another table in model), but for inserting and updating comments you must use something else (like excel file)
