Make Direct Lake Only the default selection in the Direct Lake Behavior drop-down selector.   Benefits of Direct Lake Only:   - it gives faster performance than Automatic - it gives us a clear indication that fallback to DirectQuery happening (visuals fail) - Direct Lake respects relationship constraints, for example it makes visuals fall if there are duplicates values on the one-side of a relationship. DirectQuery doesn't respect relationship constraints. So we can get unexpected results if fallback to DQ happens.   Ref.: https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftFabric/s/yGC5BHNvAm   https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftFabric/s/KChWdRrOiT ... View more

With current pie and donut chart core visuals we are stuck with manually picking slice colors. It would add a lot of functionality if we could add a measure/conditional formatting for slice colors and data values. Also, pie charts where the min and max angles can be constrained can add a lot more ability to make creative and engaging visuals. For example:   ... View more

I use the Microsoft Radar chart visual, but one thing that really annoys me about it is that the "Y-axis" is always dynamic and a maximum value cannot be set. My suggestion would be to allow users to set a maximum value, as is possible for other visuals, to show how different values are scoring against a maximum possible score. ... View more

I would like to suggest a streamlined improvement to the Import Experience when working with the Folder Import method. Currently, users are required to manually paste the folder path into the input field, even if the path is already copied to the Clipboard. To enhance User Efficiency and provide a more User-Friendly experience, I recommend implementing a feature where Power BI automatically detects the content of the Clipboard and pre-fills the folder path field in the import dialog. This automation would reduce the number of steps required, simplify the process, and save valuable time for users. Such a feature aligns with Power BI's goal of delivering an Enhanced Usability and Streamlined Workflow for professionals who frequently work with multiple data sources. By incorporating Clipboard Integration, Power BI can offer a faster and smoother Data Connectivity experience. I truly appreciate the dedication your team has toward improving Power BI, and I hope you will consider this suggestion for future updates. Thank you for continuously delivering such an outstanding platform. Best regards ... View more

Dear Microsoft Power BI Team,   I hope this email finds you well. I would like to propose a feature enhancement for Power BI that could significantly improve its usability and interactivity:   Feature Request: Native Video Visual in Power BI   Currently, Power BI does not support direct video embedding within reports, limiting users to external links or third-party visuals. A dedicated "Video" visual would allow users to upload and play videos directly within Power BI reports, enhancing user experience for various applications, including:   1. Training & Tutorials: Embedding instructional videos directly within dashboards. 2. Financial & Market Analysis: Adding CEO speeches, earnings reports, or investor briefings. 3. Product Showcases: Displaying product demo videos alongside sales insights. 4. Surveillance & Security Analytics: Integrating security footage for real-time monitoring.   Suggested Features for the Video Visual: 1. Support for local uploads and cloud-based sources (OneDrive, SharePoint). 2. Basic playback controls (Play, Pause, Seek, Volume). 3. Support for multiple formats (MP4, AVI, WebM, etc.). 4. Integration with Power Automate & Power Apps for workflow automation.   This feature would enhance Power BI’s capabilities and provide a more dynamic and interactive experience for users. I would love to hear your thoughts on this and whether it is something that could be considered for future updates. Looking forward to your feedback. Best Regards, Surjeetsinh Nandkumar Thakur   ...

I’d like to suggest adding the Format Painter feature to the Power BI Service to enhance the editing experience. This tool, already available in Power BI Desktop, would allow users to quickly apply consistent formatting across visuals directly in the Service, saving time and effort. Currently, users must return to Desktop for such changes, which disrupts the workflow. Implementing this feature would make report customization in the Service more efficient and user-friendly. ...

Currently, if you start a manual refresh for a dataset (Azure SQL in my case), then start a refresh schedule for that dataset before the manual refresh finishes, the refresh schedule will be wiped when the manual refresh finishes (I have reproduced this many times).   This is either a bug, or this feature should be changed. The current behavior of wiping scheduled refreshes makes no sense. ... View more

It would be very useful to have a cascading dropdown  visual option, as opposed to multiple dropdowns. For example, to be able to select or hover over a region, and then for the region's constituent Counries or offices to display as filter options. This can currently be achieved using third party developer's visualizations, but it would be very useful, especially as space is often limited on a report page. ... View more

I may have found an issue with the new Org App.    Reports that use Segoe UI in the theme which have been published to ORG APP do not render to font correctly for MAC users. These same reports, when published in the old APP or when viewed in the Workspace by the same MAC users render correctly.   I know there are issues with MAC and certain fonts but because this issue seems to be limited to ORG APP publication I thought there might be something that can be adjusted there to have it render correctly as it does in the original APP.   Thank you for your time ...

Currently, whenever a new update for Power BI Desktop is available, users need to manually download and install the latest version. This process can be time-consuming, especially for enterprise users who rely on Power BI for reporting and analytics. Proposed Solution: Introduce an Auto-Update feature in the Options & Settings menu, allowing users to enable automatic updates for Power BI Desktop. This feature would ensure that Power BI Desktop stays up to date without requiring manual intervention, improving efficiency and user experience. Benefits: Seamless Updates: Ensures users always have the latest features and security improvements. Time-Saving: Eliminates the need for manual downloads and installations. Enhanced User Experience: Reduces interruptions and ensures a smooth workflow. Implementation Considerations: Provide an option to enable or disable auto-updates in the settings. Allow users to choose update preferences (automatic, notify before updating, or manual updates). Ensure compatibility checks before updating to prevent breaking existing reports. This feature would significantly improve the usability of Power BI Desktop and align it with modern software update mechanisms. Looking forward to feedback and support from the community ...

Hello, Can we have the option like "Specific Column" to rows where we can bold/color/highlight only on that row? Currently, when I apply "Blue" color to a row header, all row headers turn blue. And the same to bold/italic. And that specific row should be able to be aligned right while the others on left aligned. So, such implementation will make the gap between Excel-style formatting and PBI closer and will attract Excel professionals.   Thanks in advance! ... View more
