Freeze top header
- 1 year ago
Hi Anonymous ,
Thank you for reaching out to us on the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
Currently, Power BI does not support freezing or pinning a section of a report page (like buttons or visuals) to remain fixed while scrolling, unlike Excel’s “Freeze Panes.” This is a known limitation and not listed as a bug, since it's a missing feature rather than a functionality issue.If this capability is important to your workflow, I highly recommend submitting or voting for it on the Power BI Ideas forum. Microsoft product teams monitor this platform actively when prioritizing features for future updates.
Please go through the below following link for request for the feature on Microsoft Fabric Ideas.

There isn't a direct way to do that in a Power BI table or matrix visual. Alternatives exist. You could overlay another visual to mimic the behavior of a "frozen" row. If your column names are fixed, you could overlay an image of those names. If they are dynamic, you could overlay a card visual or a set of buttons that resolve to the column names. None of those work if you want to "scroll right". You could make your table in Vega (not Vega-Lite, although you could probably get creative with faceting and customizing headers and make it work) and use "sticky" headers. If you're uninitiated with Vega that would take considerable effort.
A paginated report would be another alternative.
