    Hi Rob,

     

    Agree with Vvelarde, if you want to display images in a big size, you can use Image Viewer custom visual to display it. But please note, if there are many image URL, the Image Viewer can only display one image per time. You can select different values from slicers to display different images.

I downloaded the PBIX file (thanks v-qiuyu-msft) and the custom visual looks great. I have been unable to locate it in the app store unfortunately. Any clues. Is there a way to extract it from the PBIX file so I can use it in another PBIX file. (I know that I could always use this PBIX file as the starting point, but what if I already have done a heap of work and want to add it)

    Image viewer available in this thread. Download as a zip and rename the zip to pbiviz. Works great!
