Hi,
So I just downloaded the new Power BI update and the new option Matrix Preview isn't appearing and my collegue is having the same issue. I've never had any problems downloading updates before. Is anyone else having the same issue or am I missing something really obvious!
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Did you enable the matrix preview visual?

I just downloaded the latest version of PBI Desktop released in September of 2017, but cannot find the "new matrix visual" option in preview options.
Yes, looks need not enable something and old Table and Matrix have been replaced with new ones completely. thanks!
Ah thanks I didn't realise I needed to do that
