Mobile Layouts

Hello,

I am new to Power BI and on a steep learning curve as i need to get a series of reports up and running quickly. 

I am struggling with the mobile layouts.

I have set mobile layouts for my visuals that I am happy with in my reports but when I pin them to a dashboard the mobile layouts do not seem to pull through, am I doing something wrong? Is there a fix for this as I need the reports to work on both desktop and mobile devices?

Thanks

Hi @GilbertQ,

Thank you for getting back to me.

I am not sure that i explained my problem very well, apologies.

I am using table visuals. 

On the report I have resized the columns and fonts so that the visual sits nicely on the mobile layout without the need to scroll to see the entire visual.

When I pin this visual to the dashboard and go to set the mobile layout for the dashboard the columns and fonts seem to have reverted back to their desktop sizes and I only have the option to resize the visual as a whole which is resulting in the need to scroll in all directions to see the whole thing.

I am trying to work out how to pull through the mobile layout settings from the report onto the dashboard.

Sorry if I am using the wrong words here, hope this makes more sense.

Thanks

 

Hi @Mingwitch 

 

Yeah it does not always play nice and I am not sure if there is a way to get it working in the way that you want.

Hi @Mingwitch 

 

To view the dashboards for mobile devices you need to view it on a mobile device or change the view in your dashboard .
