Ellipsis keeps disappearing on some pages of the report

We have a report published in the App for quite some time and has been working fine. However, today we noticed that the ellipsis on the table and matix visuals keeps glitching. When user clicks on the ellipsis to export data, the menu appears for a fraction of a second and disappears.

I had the same issue, then I turned off 'use modern visual header' as per my post above and the problem disappeared. Not sure if it works for others as well, though it is worth a try.

I did discover a work-around of sorts. Refreshing the page will clear the problem temporarily, but doing so undoes some of your selections so it it very annoying and a waste of time. The problem eventually comes back.

Hi, @nk19330 ;

Report Author likely turned off individual visual header icons, or the entire header.

etc.

Or at the report level (hide visual header in reading view) for all visuals:

Note: in Edit mode, you still see all the visual header, which is why it shows in Desktop. These settings only apply to read-only mode.

Pleae read my initial note. The ellipsis menu keeps glitchig.. it appears only for a fraction of second.  Visual Header is enbled on the visual. This seems to be a bug probably introduced with the previous update to services. Because I keep facing issues with my App dashboard as well. The tiles view keeps showing blank unless I select List view twice and then select tiles view.

Interesting suggestion. What I have experienced seems similar to the OP decription. The elipsis is there, but when one clicks on it the menu appears for a fraction of a second and disappears. The settings on the visual header havn't changed. In fact it doesn't always happen. I noticed that the same thing happens when I right-click on a data row in the tabluar visual. My company has turned in a ticket to Microsoft and I have a Teams appointment Tuesday morning with someone from Microsoft to discuss.

I did discover that refreshing the page will clear the problem temporarily, but doing so undoes some of your selections so it it very annoying and a waste of time.

I have not seen the issue since Microsoft released an update to service in early November.

I am seeing the same thing. When I do get it to work so that I can export data, the export never completes.
