    Hi SheldonEdwards,

     

    By my research, if you could unzip your pbix file, you will find the size of Data Model for the two pbix files are different.

     

     

    So the files will have different sizes. 

     

    Besides, I found that your image not showing in matrix may caused by the URL is too long, you need to turn on the Word Warp under firmating.

     

     

    You could see the result in the attachment.

     

    Best regards,

    Cherry

Awesome, thanks v-piga-msft :smileyhappy:

 

For interests sake, why would the size of the data model be different, after I stripped out all of the data?

 

Also, why is there a difference between the default bahaviors of the Matrix visuals in my 2 PBIX files (when inserting a new Matrix visual into either of the files, one defaults to Word Wrap on, and the other off)?  Could it be because one of the files originates from a much older version of Power BI?

 

Thanks a million
