How to freeze rows in a Matrix visual in Power BI?

I’m working with a Matrix visual in Power BI where I have a large number of rows. When I scroll down, the row headers (first column) scroll out of view. Is there any way to freeze the row headers (similar to “Freeze Panes” in Excel) so that they stay visible while scrolling through the rest of the data?

Hi @UdhayakumarT ,

You can freeze panes by adjusting below
1. Change the layout and style presents to Tabular and Turn on Repeat row headers

@UdhayakumarT Can you post a screen shot? The column headers are always visible in a Matrix visual. Do you have a hierarchy in the rows or ? I can't quite grasp what you are trying to achieve.
