PowerBI Custom Visual - Enhance the initial view.
Hi Guys..
I'm developing a powerbi custom visual, witch is mostly done and ready to go.
For the better look & feel, attraction and the user guidance contents, I'm going to develop the initial empty view of the visual with some HTML tags and images and/or gif animations.
For that purpose, I need the visual to fire an event, soon after the visual instance is dragged from the visuals pane to the report/page . That means, this expected event should fire before user drag any data field from the datasource to the capabilities fields.
Currently it fires only the "update" event, when user drag a data field.
Is there any available event for this purpose, that fires just after visual dragged on to the report/page.
Or any other feasibility to apply my HTML tags and images/gifs on the initial empty view of visual.
Thanks in advance..
Lasantha.
Hi dakdgdl,
There are capabilities that allow the update method to fire when the data view is empty, which is the Power BI visuals way to handle a landing page. Here's the MS documentation on how to set it up.

Hi dm-p,
That's really perfect..
These 2 capabilities make the update method to trigger even before drag a data field.
{
"supportsLandingPage": true,
"supportsEmptyDataView": true,
}
Thank you very much
