Power BI Full Screen mode in Internet Explorer shrinks to a tiny square

When a PowerBI dashboard is embedded in an Office 365 SharePoint page, it displays fine in Chrome browser when you click on "Full Screen" arrow icon. When you do the same in Internet Explorer, it shrinks to a tiny box with no way of making it expand to actually use full screen.

    bhogan,

    I can reproduce your issue in IE11, however, everything works well in Edge. How about you use Edge?

    In addition, when using Publish to Web feature, there is no security. I would recommend you use "Embed in SharePoint Online" feature.

      Unfortunately there are many IE users viewing this data so expecting them to use Edge is not a viable option. Embedding it doesn't resolve the issue either as the viewers do not have a power BI account and theperson setting this up doesn't have PowerBI Premium. I guess we will need to submit a case to Microssoft to resolve it working with IE which should be a supported web browser.

        bhogan,

        I will report this issue internally , and will update here once I get any feedbacks.

  • I have this exact issue on all of my reports - it is possible to view them in fullscreen perfectly in google chrome, but clicking the expand button in Microsoft's own IE results in a tiny box view of the report.

     

    Has  anyone found a solution to this, or is it recommended that we encourage users to download chrome?

     

    I've also noticed that (in a legend within a chart) at the absolute far right hand side of the screen, text can be clipped when embedded in an iframe (dimensions 1120 * 686, and working perfectly in chrome). It's quite bizzare that Power BI isn't optimised for the IE browser!

     

    Regards
