Report screen size when published

Hi guys, 
I'm having a hard time with the sreen size of my published report. The dashboard has huge measures (height: 5000px Width 1800px) and, of course, when I publish it, the report looks like this:



I know I can use the "fit to width" view but the problem is that the PBI doesn't save the zoom in and, every time someone needs to access the report, they need to fix the screen size manually and its terrible for user experience.

Is there a way to fix this so the user can se the report properly whenever accessing it, without doing the fixing manually or me having to change the PBI Desktop measures?

    Hi LucasBW 

     

    My recommendation would be instead of trying to put it all on one report page, why don't you rather separate those out into individual report pages? As I can clearly see there are segmentation parts in your page and this will allow the users to use the report in a more meaningful way.

      Hi Gilbert. This was a topdown demand from my companie to have this exactly one page consolidated. I know there are workarounds envolving changes with more pages, or less width, but none of them is what I'm looking for right now =/

      Its killing me know that the online PBI have the zoom in option (wich literally solve my screen size problem) but cannot save it as standard tool.

    1. Fix page size
    Frankly, a height of 5000px is not considered a good UI in Power BI.
    Best practice is:

    • Use standard sizes (e.g. 16:9 or ~1280x720 / 1600x900)
    • Split the report into multiple pages

     

    2. Use bookmarks + navigation
    Break your long page into sections:

    • Create multiple pages or “tabs”
    • Use buttons/bookmarks for navigation
      This gives a much better UX than scrolling

    Hi LucasBW   ,
    Thank you  for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

    Since the report page is very large, Power BI Service automatically scales it, and currently the zoom option like Fit to width is not saved. So every time users open the report, they need to adjust it manually.

    As of now, Power BI Service doesn’t have an option to set or persist a default zoom level for viewers. Because of this, there is not a direct way to keep the report always opening in the desired view without changing the page size or layout.

    You can also submit this as a feature request in the Fabric Ideas forum, so the product team can consider adding this option. so that as it would help in scenarios like yours.
