I'm having an issue with PowerBI not working smoothly (web not app). The support site says "no known issues" however, searching my problem gives other with my issue, and others in my org are having the same issue. Therefore the "No known issues" bar at the top of the support page is not accurate. At least provide me an "I disagree" button, because it's very frustrating to be locked out of reports and see "No known issues".

Often I don't have an opportunity to open a report on my ipad. When i tap on a chart on dashboard it opens in focus mode and there i can see only "annotate and share" option. After i refresh that dashboard i see both "annotate and share" and "open report" options. Please let these two options be always visible, because it's very frustrating for power bi customers.

Suggest moving the "All Regions" marker in the "Cost by location" widget on the dashboard to a neutral place, such as the Atlantic or perhaps the Arctic for improved visibility

I have found that users in SharePoint or in a User Group may alter, move, or even delete the source excel file without knowing its PowerBI connections. This results in refreshes not being able to find the source data. Can you source files be marked or notification be sent to a user before making any major changes?

Sharing the Dashboard according to the user. For e.g AMR region data should only be seen by the AMR sales Manager, whereas these datas are restricted for Africa Sales head. Also it would be great if from a single dashboard, upon sharing one pop up should come asking which all tiles in that particular dashboard should be shared.

Create a feature that publishes your result dataset in some tabular format on the HDInsight/Hadoop layer labelled with option re auto generation of polybase table. then other business users could simply access generated datasets by business given the powerbi desktop sharing and usability is so limited and going down the path of enabling people to link to the power bi files is not helping business rather propagating the issue we are all facing created within excel, make the tool usable and functional and use the platforms for storing results for sharing and other use not the files.

There are years of grid enablement features embedded in Excel that are critical in data preparation and analysis severely lacking and limiting in powerbi desktop forcing business users to stay in excel, this includes basics like user defined formula's and libraries sharable and accessible across business users as opposed to hard coded internal to a single file only

Remove the bar (more options) on the top of the visuals to the left or right sides or overlay on the visuals itself. Would be nice if you give us the access to disable more options from the visuals.

The list of columns shown in the Choose Columns window when editing a query is not sorted alphabetically. It's very time consuming and difficult to work with the list because of this especially when there are 10s or 100s of columns. I'm curious how the person that programmed this part of PBI looked at that window and said, "Yep, this list does not need to be sorted. Who would want that?"

As user discovers the reports and learn the names etc. they will get what they want faster rather than allowing the system to best guess the way to represent the data

Currently if you add a helper column to custom sort another column, the custom sort is observed when dragging and dropping fields to build a visualisation, but done when Q&A builds the visualisation.

It would be great if I could edit the title of a report inside the report editor, rather than having to pin it to a dashboard then edit it on the dashboard. Right now, the report title consists of the columns selected from the dataset, and you can't edit it.

Using PBI Online, I have a list of dataset names, many of which are truncated with an ellipsis. It would be great if I could resize the layout (say, using a vertical splitter) such that I could read the full text for my dataset names - this does not seem to be currently supported.
