Hi @Anonymous,

Based on my test with the latest Power BI desktop optimized for report server version 2.51.4885.2501 64-bit (October 2017), Focus Mode for visuals works fine. Please update to the latest version then test again. 

Best Regards,

Hi, 

I also have the same issue.  I have updated my PBI reporting server on Feb 1st, which I assume I have the latest version. However, my current version 1.1.6582.41691 (October 2017) did not fix the focus mode issue. 

One thing I did realize that if I build my report using "Import data" or "Direct Query", the focus mode works correctly. 

However, if I use Multi-dimensional Cube as data source, the focus mode is not working correctly.

Any advice?

Latest Power BI RS edition is October version and it may be a bug in that version. I believe focus mode was released by October but if not, that might also be a reason, or perhaps you need to activate a Preview Feature?
