Power BI - Copy Image - Reference line Name Error

Hi All,

 

When I try to copy a visual as an image in Power BI Service the name of my reference line is changing.

 

Visual in Service:

 

Visual after copy:

I have tried:

 

re-creating the visual from scratch - republish

copying and pasting the visual and delting the old one - republish

removing the reference line and adding it again - repblish

 

No luck. Is this a bug?

Need Help

    Hi, CaveOfWonders 

     

    Based on testing, the names of the referenced columns do not change when the report visual is output as an image; you can share the pbix file with no sensitive data or post any data that replicates the problem.

    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Thank you for your reply. I think you misunderstood my issue. It has nothing to do with the columns, but the reference line on the visual, in my case I have a measure which is being used to calculate the average and I have named it Average.

     

    In my example, pre-copy the reference line in the visual says:

     

    Average: 66,884

     

    but when I copy it as an image it is saying:
