R script visual avoid auto run

Hi, Does anyone knows if there is a way to avoid R script visuals running automatically when the report page with the respective script is select?
Would be nice to let it run upon clicking on play rather than every time you go to the page.

thanks

Hi @mottarapp 

As tested, there is "run" icon on the report where you could click on it to make the script run in Power BI.

thanks Maggie. 

right. but my questions is the script runs automatically, every time you go to the page where the script is. I was wondering if there is a way not to do that, but rather run upon clicking on play only. as you show

 

thanks
