Keep Stepped Layout Expaned

[chris-d]

I have created a dashboard that is used by a large group of people with varying levels of comfort with Power Bi. One key feature is a matrix, that has multiple values in the rows. The stepped layout has been turned off, so the values in the rows appear to be in two separate columns. However, I want to keep the matrix expanded at this level. Turning off the +/- icon doesn't keep it expanded, nor does pinning the matrix to the dashboard at the level that I prefer. Is there a way to keep the layout expanded?

Hi @chris-d ,

Please try to close the +/- icon. 

After you publish to web, the data expanded at the level you want for users.

If I have misunderstood your meaning, please contact me with your desired output.

While the +/- icon allows the matrix to toggle back and forth between the expansion levels, this doesn't keep the matrix expanded to the desired level. In an attempt to keep the matrix expanded I put it to the desired level and removed the +/- icon, hoping that this would prevent the visual from collapsing, but this didn't do it.

Whatever you publish will be used as the default layout. If you publish with the visual in expanded mode then that's what your users will see when they reset to defaults.

While I have been publishing the dashboard to a shared workspace, it is then shared/accessed through Microsoft Teams. Is it possible that seeing the report in Microsoft Teams is why it isn't remaining in the expanded mode?
