Hi,
When I pin a tile from a report on my dashboard I noticed that the format in the tile sometimes matches the report format and sometimes not. When there is no matching format, I select the tile and go to focus mode, the format appears the same as in the tile, but if I go back to my dashboard and klick on the same tile to go to reading mode, I notice that visual has the right format. Is this perhaps a bug, or am I formatting wrongly in the desktop version?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I solved it, I found out that when you pin a visual, there is an option to keep the current format or change to the default format. I checked the box and everything went smoothly. I just wonder now why for my tile in my example, the box was differently checked...
Thanks for the help!
I have tested it on my local environment, we cannot reproduce this issue.
In your scenario, could you please try to re-pin this visual or pin this visual to new dashboard and check if this issue persists or not. If you could reproduce this issue in a sample report, please provide us your PBIX file, so that we can try to reproduce this issue and make further analysis.
Regards,
Charlie Liao

Hmm, that looks to be a bug of some sort, I would report it to Issues forum.
