Cannot copy a visual with small multiples

Within the app or the report in the service, a line chart with a small multiple field cannot be copied to the clipboard.  When pasting the clipboard contents (e.g. into Powerpoint), you get two objects, as expected, but they are both blank.

Hi @Anonymous 

 

In a Power BI app, when you click on this icon, it copies the image to the clipboard, which can then be pasted into ppt or other.

When pasted into ppt, you get two objects:

This works for all visuals that i've tested, EXCEPT when the visual uses small multiples, like this one:

In this case, copy and paste also results in two objects, one is OK, but the object for the visual itself is 'empty':

This seems to me clearly a 'bug'.

 

Kind regards,
