How to Hide a column in a table View but have it included for all row shwoing (Including Duplicate)

Hi All,

 

I Have a table where I added an Index column from Edit Query to count all the rows including the Duplicate. Now I dont want to show the Index column in the report view but want to include it so that the table display all the rows (Without the Index Column Power BI not showing the duplicates). I tried hiding the column but it doesn't work for my purpose. Is it possible to hide that Index column from the report/Visualization

Report View

Any Idea how to fix the issue

Just adjust the column width manually to hide it.

Hi @v-chuncz-msft ,

Thanks for your reply. I was just wondering if there was any other way to do it. Because if you manually adjust it then you can see the scroll bar at the bottom and I didnt want the users to drag the bar and get confused withthe Index #.

 

I wish BI had an option like Excel to hide the column from Visual.

 

Thanks for your reply 🙂

Did you ever find a solution? Collapsing definitely doesn't work.
