    JuliaYebra,

    The feature you describe is not available in Power BI. I would recommend you submit a feature request in Power BI ideas forum.

    There is also a similar idea for your reference, you can vote it up.

Yes, you can build a hierarchy in the Tree Map Group well and then use the drilldown feature to set it to one, two, or three levels.  Can have more than three levels also:

tjd thanks fo answering!

Our managers want to see the complete picture at the same time and with a hierarchy you can't do that.

When you drill down, you can't see how much represent from the previous level or the one before.

    Not true!  Use the second double arrow on the left to drill down ("Expand all down one level in the hierarchy") to drill down each successive level while still showing the previous levels.  Should work for you, does for me; unless I misunderstand what you're trying to accomplish.

      That option is not right for us because it orders the data by value. So that, it's difficult to analyze a segment when it's divided in different places.  

       

      It's perfect with 2 level (combining Group and Details) 

       

      But when using the hierarchy we loss information.
