Matrix not allowing horizontal scroll in Power BI Desktop or Online (IE11, Chrome, etc.)

With a cross tab matrix that has a lot of row fields, the matrix has a horizontal scroll bar enabled, but for some reason the scroll does not function in either the Desktop or Online tools.

Hey - when you have enough row groups in a matrix so that they don't all fit in the viewport, the scroll bars are disabled. This is because scrolling normally only affects the values area of the matrix. If you've got lots of text data, try using a table instead? Hope that helps Will

    I encounter the same issue..

    By choosing a table, the problem is partially fixed: horizontal scrolling works, but the visual representation of the info/data is clearly different.

      I have many data points in the rows for product charterstics that we need to display.  I cannot scroll to see the data.  It would be nice to choose where to freeze the view.
