PBI Services Name Column & Refresh/Settings Icons

As of the date of this post, the icons for refresh, settings, and elipses do not appear in the name column for data sets with names that exceed the visible character space. 

When the name is "too long" the icons are hidden in the area no longer visible to the user. 

I know there have been complaints about the column not being expandable to a longer lenght, but it seems it has not been fix. 

There are ways around this issue to refersh or access settings, but this simple way seems be hidden now. 

Has anyone encountered this? Expeirenced this in both EDGE and Chrome. 

When report name is short, icons are visible again.

  • Hey powerbicastelr ,

     

    I can attest that this is a new issue that I started noticing earlier this week as well.  I am hoping that Microsoft fixes it in the next update as they appear to have chagned this behaviour from what it was before.  I do not have a good  workaround but I do have one.  Select the "lineage" view and then in the box for that dataset the refresh option will appear (as will the elipses to select setting and other options).
