White boxes on top of objects

mjmar025 — Wed, 18 Oct 2017 16:13:13 GMT

Hello,

Has anybody noticed that clicking on a slicer, shape, or text box in a report that is published to PBI report server causes an unnecessary white box to form over that object? This seems to be a new problem in the August 2017 preview of PBI Report Server and I am wondering if there is a way to turn this off as it is causing overlap into other objects and messing up my dashboards. The attached image is an example of what happens when a text box is clicked.

Hi mjmar025,

I didn't encounter this problem in Power BI Report Server August Preview.

In your scenario, did this problem ocurr to all Power BI reports publish to server? Could you try to re-publish report to web protal for a test? Also, please use a different browser to open report for a test.

Best regards,

Tried to make a new report, use different browser, re-publish reports and nohing works. I installed the previous version of Power BI on my local machine and that does not have the same white box issue.

Hi mjmar025,

Reboot the Power BI Report Server Service (Preview version), does issue persist?
