A weird issue when grouping objects

So I'm working on upgrading a report and I need group selected items in that report.
When I do it with my current report, it works as expected.

So when I try to group objects from another report, it seems like the Group option doesn't exist and all i have is Summarize

So. What is causing this weird error to occur?

Any help is appreciated..
Thanks, StevenCS

Hi  @Anonymous
Thank you for being part of the Microsoft Fabric Community.You can follow the steps below to ensure no whitespaces-

1. Ensure Consistent Positioning of Text Boxes-

Align the objects: Use Power BI's snap-to-grid and alignment tools to ensure the new text boxes are aligned properly. Select multiple objects and use the Align options to position them correctly.

2. Remove old text box and replace it with new.

3. Additionally, you can go to 

Goto File->Options&Settings->Options , and Select Current File Settings

Hi All!
So I'm working on upgrading a report and I need to use text objects from a report and place them on the report that's going to be updated, replacing the current text boxes.

From the report that I'm using to replace objects.

when I copy this box over to the other report, this is what it looks like

There's a whitespace on top and I can't seem to remove that. So when I try to push it to the top of the tab, the dimensions tell me that it's at the top (0) but the whitespace is acting like a buffer, so i can't actually push the text box to the top of the report.


So I'm hoping that it's just a setting of some kind that I'm not aware of but any help on this would be appreciated. I'm hoping it's a dumb little setting that I failed to identify and hide that space.
