PowerBI embedded: pageNavigation position: models.PageNavigationPosition.Left

Barendnu — Mon, 22 Mar 2021 16:17:23 GMT

Dear all,

In this blogpost, I read that we can show the navigation on the left position, instead of showing as tabs on the bottom:

var embedConfig = {
    ...
    settings: {
        panes: {
            pageNavigation: {
                visible: true,
                position: models.PageNavigationPosition.Left
            }
        }
    }
};

We implemented this monts ago and until last weekend, this worked fine in our application.
But since a couple of days (although no code has changed) the pages now show up as tabs:

Until recently page navigation was shown on the left:

But now it's shown at the bottom, as tabs, which is unwanted:

I tried applying above PageNavigationPosition setting in the Power BI Playground too, but without succes.

Am I overlooking something? Thanks for any help!

I am observing the same issue. PageNavigationPosition.Left was working as @Barendnu described last week, and today tabs are appearing at the bottom of the page.

We are encountering the same issue. On Thursday. 03/18/2021, Page Navigation was on the left, using the above settings. By the following day, perhaps even the evening of 03/18/2021, without any code changes, Page Navigation was back at the bottom and hasn't budged since.

We're also encountering the same issue, no code changes made either. Currently running v2.17.2, tried upgrading to https://github.com/microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript/releases/tag/v2.18.0 but the issue still persisted.

¡Buenos días!

También tengo el mismo problema. Anteriormente ya tenía configurado reportes de Power BI Embedded con la propiedad: "position: models.PageNavigationPosition.Left", pero al día de hoy ya no funciona.

Realicé pruebas en https://playground.powerbi.com/ pero tampoco funciona ahí.

This clearly is a bug at Microsoft side. Someone else already posted an issue / bug report:
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Unale-to-re-position-Page-Navigation-Pane/idc-p/1741700

Let's vote for it, and hope that it get fixed soon...

If anyone else bumps into this thread and tries to use

position: models.PageNavigationPosition.Left

and it doesn't work, we succeeded with

position: 1
