Is there any way, current or planned, to make the ellipsis menu always visible or pinned on Power BI visuals, so users can see and access export options consistently without having to hover over each visual?
If this feature does not exist yet, I would like to raise this as a feature request to improve user experience and make data exporting more accessible.
Thank you for your time and support!

Hi @tejyam
At the moment, Power BI doesn’t give us a way to keep the ellipsis (…) menu permanently visible on visuals - it only shows up when you hover over the corner of the visual. This is intentional to keep reports looking clean, but it can feel a bit inconvenient if you regularly need quick access to export or other options. Unfortunately, there’s no setting to pin it always on. The best step would be to raise it as a feature request on the official Microsoft Ideas forum, as that’s where most improvements in Power BI are tracked and considered based on community feedback. If others vote on it, there’s a good chance it might be added in the future. Until then, hovering over the visual remains the only way to access those options.
