Export Data to Excel (xslx)

There are 3 options for Export Data to Excel - Data With Current Layout, Summarized Data and Underlying Data. I can turn off Underlying Data in the PBIX Options \ Report Settings screen. However I cannot turn off Summarized Data but leave Data With Current Layout on:

The problem is Summarized Data shows the underlying column names rather than the displayed column headings in certain situations.

I'm reporting this as a Bug (Issue) rather than an Idea as it seems to me to be inconsistent with what a user might expect to see. They would expect to see the displayed column heading. I thought it might occur after I edit the column heading in the visual, but there doesn't seem to be a consistent difference between the columns I've edited and those I haven't.

Hi, @belvoir99 ;

Sorry, I can't reproduce your question. Can you share your original vision and the result you want to export?
