Scorecards

Hi geisph ,

1. Page list / hierarchy panel collapsing resets context

Current behavior (by design):

• In Power BI Scorecards, when you collapse the left-side hierarchy / page list, the view refreshes and scrolls back to the top of the scorecard.

• At the moment, there is no supported URL parameter or setting to:

  • Open a scorecard with the page list hidden

  • Preserve scroll position or context when collapsing the panel

Best practices / workarounds:

• Keep the hierarchy panel expanded while working with deep goal structures.

• Use shorter scorecard sections (split large scorecards into multiple scorecards) to reduce excessive scrolling.

• Use consistent naming and numbering (e.g., 1.0, 1.1, 1.1.1) so users can quickly relocate their position after a reset.

2. Search breaks hierarchical context

Current behavior (by design):

• When you search for a goal (e.g., “Action A”), Power BI:

  • Shows only matching goals

  • Removes the hierarchical tree view

• As a result, parent goals, siblings, and child goals are not visible or expandable in search mode.

Limitations:

• There is no option today to:

  • Display the searched goal within its hierarchy

  • Automatically expand parent/child goals after search
