It would be extremely helpful if Power BI provided an option to automatically maintain a consistent spacing (e.g., 5–10 pixels) between visuals when stacking or aligning them vertically/horizontally. This would streamline dashboard design, improve consistency, and reduce manual adjustments when resizing or rearranging visuals.
Suggested features:
A setting to define default spacing between visuals
Smart guides or auto-snap to spacing
Support for equal spacing in "Align" and "Distribute" functions
This small UX feature would save time and improve layout precision, especially for reports with many visuals.

For reference to other spacing options, see InDesign or Inkscape for a wide range of facilities. I think a different approach may work best. A "Minimum margin" feature. For example: You bring two visuals with a minimum margin of 10px together, They snap at a 10px gap. You bring a visual with a 15px and another with a 5px minimum margin together. They snap at 15px. Visuals can opt-out of margin snapping. For example, a bookmark group formatted as tabs may wish to snap exactly to a visual, even if the other visual is specifying a margin.
