Freeze object on Screen
Is it possible to “freeze” the position of an object on the screen even if we scroll the page?
I mean… I have a page navigator in my report, and for one of the views there is a horizontal scroll page. I need that even after scroll all the page horizontally, the page navigator continues in the middle of the screen.
If I could compare, would be something like the Excel "freeze panes"

Sticky headers are currently not possible in Power BI. Hopefully, the Microsoft platform team will address this soon, as it’s become a basic feature in many tools. No need to waste your time looking for workarounds for now.

Yes, it is possible to "freeze" the position of an object on the screen in Power BI so that it remains visible even when you scroll the page. This can be done using the "Sticky header" feature in Power BI.
Here are the steps to use the Sticky header feature:
- Select the visual or object that you want to "freeze" on the screen.
- In the Visualizations pane, go to the "Format" section.
- Under the "General" category, turn on the "Sticky header" option.
- Save your changes and preview your report.
When you scroll the page, the visual or object with the Sticky header option turned on will remain visible at the top of the page. You can also turn on the Sticky header option for multiple visuals or objects on the same page.
Note: The Sticky header feature is currently only available for tables and matrix visuals in Power BI. It may not work for other types of visuals or objects.
hi, i am unable to find/locate this option. can you please help,
Can you please post a screenshot of that? I know that the headers of table and matrix visuals are sticky by default but only on the visuals themselves and not on the page. I can't find that sticky option in general settings.
I need to freeze the below ones. any solution.
