How to disable the automatic inline hierarchy???
- 9 years ago
Thanks LanceDelano! Seems, last service build 13.0.1605.489 works exactly as you promised!
But i'm have some question about buttons image quality. (see picture. This screenshot was made from Edge with 200% zoom)
Hi ankitpatira, this option "Auto Date/Time alredy disabled in my PBIX.
Look at this video, how this new "cool" fiture broke all of my reports
(before this update, drill works ok!)
HI.
I always try to think positively about change. The new in-line hiearchy feature will bring possibilities that we didn't have before, but it is taking away some we already have and like.
I know many workarounds to solve the problem in my chart below, but I dont't have only one like this.
One problem I see is changing the Power BI Online Service in a way that the visuals start presenting different views and numbers is not a good practice. We are caught off guard in the middle of a presentation with numbers we are not expected to see... I mean numbers, because this new in-line hieararchy group information that previously where separated.
When releasing such a feature, I recommend making it in a way that the previous view is kept and we can have the new view if we like. It is not that hard. Imagine, in this case, a new Drill Down button is added that goes in-line hierarchy, but we stil have the expand all button behaving the same way before...
Now I have many charts to adjust to this new way of drill down.
I believe in features that add new options, but do not replace good options broadly used.
Please fix this, adding a new button to opt between normal or in-line drill down.

I can't agree more. The PowerBI dev team is asleep at the wheel if they don't understand this.

Thank you for your comment. Similar to what you have suggested, we are immediately working on a button that will preserve the old behavior and new separate button that will enable the new behavior. I can't promise an exact timeline at this point, but we have heard the feedback and consider this a super high priority. So, it will be soon. The new behavior, as a side comment, will improve in readability over time as well.

Hi Tishchenko, thanks for the heads up!
Amanda, thank you for sharing the ideas of this post with Power BI Team.
LanceDelano, thank you for keeping us updated about the process of adjusting this nice features.
Adding a new button is really a good solution because we are going to benefit both ways of drill down: Hierarchycal and non-hierarchycal.
This type of feedback and response is what makes this an extraordinary community, which I'm glad to be part of.
Thank you again!
