Export to PowerPoint (Preview) feedback
One more thing that I would love to see added:
- The ability to export without embedded links to the report.
I absolutely agree with this.
We're trying to generate a PowerPoint with branded content and a background image. Firstly, background images don't show up in PowerPoint exports which is really annoying. So we are just trying to use an Image, but that makes the whole page clickable pointing to the Power BI website unless you remove the hyperlinks...

Yeah, currently we use the export to PowerPoint a lot, and we use a macro to remove all the hyperlinks that are automatically embedded.
However, it would be great if it is possible to export to PowerPoint without those hyperlinks embedded, or an option somewhere to enable/disable this.

Yep. I saw that macro as well, but we're trying to generate decks for non-technical folks. I can't have them going in and running...
Dim slide As slide Dim index As Long Dim counter As Long counter = 0 For Each slide In ActivePresentation.Slides For index = slide.Hyperlinks.Count To 1 Step -1 slide.Hyperlinks(index).Delete counter = counter + 1 Next index Next slide MsgBox ("Removed " + CStr(counter) + " links")- Fraukje8 years agoAdvocate II
I totally agree with you. Macros are already quite technical for non-technical folks!
