Navigate pages hierarchically

[shtak]

Hi,

I'm enjoying PowerBI world.

I am glad to see the "new look on" with navigation bar of pages on the left of the screen, which I think is easier to use than the tabs on the bottom.

Does anybody know if we can navigate the pages hierarchically, like,,

[preferred]

Product sales

 -- domestic sales

 -- foreign sales

Product growth

 -- domestic growth

 -- foreign growth

instead of

Product sales (domestic)

Product sales (foreign)

Product growth (domestic growth)

Product growth (foreign growth)

so that users can see the structure of the total dashboard systematically.

Thank you for any related help .

Regards,

Shinya

Hi @shtak ,

You can try "drillthrough",it's a fantastic tool that can satisfy your need.

Here is the reference about how to use it in desktop. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-drillthrough

It can also be used in service,such as below,just turn to the reference above.

Hi Kelly,

Thank you for your advice.

Drillthrough surely is a wonderful function which we're going to use.

Hierarchy menu doesn't seem to be implemented yet.

The following is the image we're looking for.

find bellow:

 "If there were only a  "group objects" or "select all" capability like other MS tools, "

I think I can try post an "idea" on MS page.

You can create your own custom "Page of content" or menu.

Powerbi.tips has some free layouts you might want to look at:

powerbi.tips layouts 

Or you can of course create your own. Here is an example of a project I worked on. The screenshot is of the "menu" page. Each thumbnail has a bookmark to the corresponding report page; each report page has a "return to menu" button.

Hi PaulDBrown,

Thank you for your reply.

Layout templates are very helpful.

I am looking for some built-in function that allows showing the hierarchy of pages instead of the present one expressing them in one level.

I hope this will be implemented on PowerBI service/desktop. I will try posting an "idea" on MS page.

Regards,

Shinya
