Changing canvas settings to HD resolution

hi Guys,

i have changed my current page to HD resolution:

the case is that all my visuals are too small right now. How to adjust them automatically or using selection to changed canvas size?

Best,
Jacek

Hey @jaryszek ,

You've changed your Power BI canvas size to Full HD (1920×1080), but your visuals appear too small now. Here's how you can scale and adjust visuals efficiently:

Option 1: Use "Ctrl + A" + Manual Resize

1. Select all visuals:

   • Click on a blank area of the report canvas.

   • Press Ctrl + A to select all visuals.

2. Group them (optional):

   • Right-click → Group → “Group” (this keeps their relative positions).

3. Resize as a group:

   • Use the corner drag handles to proportionally scale them up.

   • Hold Shift while resizing to maintain aspect ratio if needed.

Option 2: Use the “Selection” and “Format” Pane

If you want to scale visuals uniformly and precisely:

1. Open Selection pane (View tab → Selection).

2. Open Format pane.

3. Select each visual and adjust the size (width/height) and position (X/Y) in increments.

This is tedious for many visuals but allows pixel-perfect control.

Option 3: Use JSON Theme for Padding & Scaling

"visualStyles": {
  "*": {
    "*": {
      "general": [
        {
          "responsive": true,
          "padding": {
            "top": "10px",
            "bottom": "10px"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

It is not a solution, it is workarpound for missing feature 🙂

Hi @jaryszek 

Thanks a lot for your honest feedback, you're absolutely right. At this point, Power BI doesn't support automatic visual scaling when changing canvas size, which can definitely be limiting in scenarios like yours.

What’s currently possible are these workarounds (like Ctrl+A resizing or pixel adjustments), but we completely understand that this isn’t an ideal or native solution. It’s more of a manual patch than a true feature.

As suggested by @Nasif_Azam , the options shared should help address your requirement effectively.
