Productivity Hacks: Transforming Text using Power BI 07-28-2021 08:23 AM

[Alice_Drummond]

DiscoverEI loved all of the 100 practical productivity tips shared by the Filtered team in their PDF report (check it out here).... So we converted the 107 pages of the PDF into an interactive Power BI report! Check out the report to become more productive 😎

Power BI is not just limited to visualising quantitative data, it is also a fantastic data storytelling tool for transforming large amounts of text into an interactive dashboard! 

DiscoverEI's Top 3 Tips for visualising qualitative data in Power BI:

1. Use Slicers to filter your data
2. The Card Browser custom visual is our go-to for creating a nice scrollable gallery
3. Use icons, images and conditional formatting to bring text to life!

This  dashboard has been developed using the productivity tips from Filtered (2018).

Hi Alice,

Can you please share how the Visual 4. Start Again functionality was created ?

[naimsaifi]

create a bookmark with no filter seleced and asign to a button. thats it.

[JBulckaen]

I think it's basically a button reseting all the slicers/filters.
You can find a how-to on this link: https://blog.jongallant.com/2020/05/powerbi-clear-all-filters/

This is really neat!  I like how you have text in the cards and have the option to click the card to show more details with a pop out.  Would you share how you did that?

[Alice_Drummond]

Thanks a lot - really glad you like it! I'm using the Card Browser custom visual, for this one - it's one of my favourite visuals! Check it out here: https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA104381278?tab=Overview 

Hope that helps 😃
