Simplify rearranging dashboard tiles

[OMackenzie]

Power BI dashboards involve a lot of manual effort to rearrange tiles, and require a lot of rework for a small change.

They seem very far behind the abilities of reports, where most of this functionality seems basic and has been around for years.

The following would help make this easier:

• The ability to group tiles together to move multiple together as a unit
• A setting to choose the behaviour when adding or deleting tiles, e.g.
  • Tiles being shifted across rather than downwards
  • Automatically filling gaps when tiles are deleted rather than manully having to drag and drop every single tile upwards
• The ability to duplicate existing tiles (e.g. a text tile)
• The ability to move a dashboard tile to a different location on the dashboard without having to manually drag it all the way up/across, which often leads to accidentally shifting other tiles
• The ability to choose where a new tile will be added, rather than always at the bottom of the dashboard
• The ability to choose a default size for new tiles, e.g. 1x1 rather than 2x2
• The ability to have text tiles which are half the height of the usual minimum tile size, as the current smallest height can take up a lot of excess space
• Carry over of the visual's subtitle into the dashboard tile's subtitle, as it can be difficult to know which tile is which when pinning multiple similar visuals from a report
• Clearer traceability of the tile source, such as a clickthrough option which navigates to the report and highlights the visual from which the tile has been pinned along with any filters applied. It is often difficult to locate where the tile was originally pinned from in a report and what filters were applied at the time
