Hi Anonymous,

 

thanks for your answer. Resizing of the column in the report works fine (anyway the application choose the correct widht depending on the content of the table), but this doesn't work on the Dashboard.

 

Is there any other opportunity to change the column width at the Dashboard?

I've tried on macOS Sierra (Safari, Chrome & Firefox) and on Windows 7 with Power BI Desktop (to create all the reports) with Fireforx, Chrome & Internet Explorer. With each OS & Browser the same problem.

 

At the moment my Dashboard need to be displays on 2 screens to visualize all needed information :/

 

thx in advance!

      I have the same problem, but it applies to both dashboard AND reports.  In short...  NO COLUMN can be widened or narrowed.  Even if you go to FOCUS on the tile (of the report) you cannot make the columns wider.  I actually need to export the data to excel then format the columns.

       

      I am sure it 'used to' work.  It seems it stopped working in the last couple of months.
