Transform column to rows on table visualization

Hi,

 

So this is on a drillthrough page for an employee. I just want to present many details of the employee in a table view, but it's only two rows (one being the header) and with a ton of columns, so it looks pretty terrible (see pic below). How do I move the column headers to be rows or in a vertical format?

Either use MATRIX with the "Show Values on Rows" selected - https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-august-2017-feature-summary/

 

Or use a Multi Row Card

 

Here is sample with two employees..

I am having the same issue but both solutions only moves measures to the rows.  I have dimension data (text values) that I want to display in the rows. For example, for a selected product, show the full product hierarchy and other categorical data.

 

Any thoughts?
