Power BI custom visuals useful links for developers
Can you add vertical grid lines for the visual "Gantt" version 2.2.3.0. And respectively a setting toggle switch to turn it on or off. Currently there are only horizontal grid lines, however it's usefull to visually relate to the date in the header. Thank you.

I have issue to add more than 4 images in title image section.
is there a limit here? anyway to overcome it?
thanks
Wenlei
Hello,
Yes, you're right.
There is a limitation for this bucket (see the following picture)
As a solution, you can fork the visual repository, adjust condition inside cpabilities.json, change a visual GUID iside pbiviz.json, build a new package using npm run package script and import a package file into your report.

Hi. I'm using the Gantt 2.2.3 and have an issue. When I edit the report in Power BI desktop, the legend colors are correct, however when I publish in my workspace the legend colors dissapear.

So, for example, I cant search for "user.na" and get "user.name@company.com"
Hi Everyone,
The custom visual Sankey Chart does not allow tooltip customization at all. Does anyone know a workaround ? or any other visusal that I can use as its alternate.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi,
The visual provides standard tooltip style as many other MS visuals.
Could you clarify please what do you mean under tooltip customization?
Kind Regards,

Thanks for replying @v-evelk
What I meant was that the tooltip only shows the name of the node and count. I also want to be able to show percentage of previous in it. The tooltips can not be configured as there is not option to add more measures to display in tooltip.
I hope I have clearified my query
Hi,
We will consider this changes in the next visual release but there isn't any ETA for a while.

Hi,
On powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/custom-visuals I read that Microsoft finally has decided to share the source code of all the visuals that ship with Power BI:
"We want you to be ready to extend Power BI. So we've provided the source code for all the visuals we ship in Power BI. You can quickly create high quality custom visuals for Power BI."
I checked github but cannot find a complete repository of the source codes.
Could someone please tell me the location of the source code of e.g. the 'matrix' and 'scatter chart' visual?
Thank you,
Martijn
Hi Martijn,
This landing page is temporary and contains obsolete info.
We will update it soon.
The source code for core visuals is private, hovever, we have got a collection of visuals with open source code. You can find them on that page.
