Hi,
Since a few weeks - I suspect since the January 2025 update - The rectangles and lines I have added into my reports don't fill the entirety of their box when the shape is thin. It causes a weird visual bug.
This behavior manifests itself both in Power BI Desktop and Service.
The dashboard of the two different organisations I deal with (completely different Microsoft tenants) are affected. This wasn't a problem previously.
Is this a known issue? Is there any workaround?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @MFelix
I already checked the padding. It's at 0 on all sides. I tried giving it another value and come back down at 0 but it didn't solved the problem.
However, I found a (weird) solution. I noticed that resizing the shape with the cursor so that the shape would be less slim did make the rectangle fill the box. Resizing it down with the cursor reintrouced the problem. I then tried to resize it manually using the visual's parameters (Format pane>Properties>Size), and it solved the problem both in Desktop and Service.
My best guess is a bug from a decimal value.

Hi @NicLap ,
I was not able to replicate your issue from scracth but what I can suggest is that you check the padding options on the visual:
