Lost Drill Through feature - PBI Desktop version August 2023

[mandyhpnguyen]

Hi everyone,

With this new layout, I cannot find the drill through other pages feature anywhere.

Could anyone show me where it is?

Thanks!

also - I don't have the option to activate the preview features:

Hi

did you manage to solve this ? 

I am following videos and articles on how to do the drill down but I don't see the options shown on powerbi desktop 2023-september !

Thank you

Chen.

I followed @Idrissshatila's instructions but before that, you must click on a white space in the dashboard, and then click the "Format" icon as in his screenshot.

are you using the desktop 2023-September edition? 

When I right click on the white space nothing happens ... 

I can't find a way to get to this menu that you showed. I am sure there is but I didn't find it/ It should be a very easy and routin task.

Hello @chenoz ,

so yes here it is as you showed, you already have it. so what is the issue ?

[chenoz]

This is the version I am using...

I am working on mac. so We installed a terminal server on AWS where I am working on it. and I installed the pbi desktop. This is the exact version :

Maybe I should try and install a different version ? 

Thank you

Chen.

well 

When I am trying to right click on the white space I dont get any menu or nothing. 

I can't see in the view menu the format pane. 

I attache print screens/ 

and in the options meny I don't have the "preview features options" / I am thinking maybe to download the october version. Is it a good idea to work with the newst version ? Is it not riski?

This is what I see in the pane:

When I press on the visual I want to drill to from another sheet I get a new menu data / drill :
