Matrix Preview - Total Row

I can't seem to find how to turn the Grand Total Row on? Has anyone been able to? Could it be missing?

(I know this is a PREVIEW)

I saw that grand total row only show (for the moment i hope) when Stepped Layout is turn off.

This is in the release note

 

Limitations and considerations

In this preview release of the Matrix Preview visual, there are a few limitations and considerations to keep in mind.

  • Drill on columns can only be done by using the right-click menu, and there's currently no indication on the visual that you can drill into row or column groups
  • You can only expand all items in a level at once, rather than expanding one category at a time
  • See Records may appear on a menu when right-clicking a column headers, but it is not operational
  • You cannot sort by clicking on column headers (expected to be enabled for General Availability)
  • There currently is no Grand total row
  • Turning off the subtotal row in stepped layout doesn't have any effect
  • Resizing of columns is not available (expected to be enabled for General Availability)
  • Column headers may be truncated if inner groups have shorter text than the outer group
  • Changing the stepped layout indentation shouldn't indent the outermost row group's indent

I just wanted to add that although the Grand Total Row doesn't show in the Desktop, it does show in the Service display.
