Timeline visual
The timeline custom visual is great, but It would be better if you were able to set a default value, ie Period - Year, Value - 2015 It would be good to see it animate over a given period alongs...
- I believe you can set a default value to your date column by setting it to (ie. 2015) via the report filter setting which predefines a filter in a report. This way, the timeline slicer can be used to change the date from the default 2015. Hope this helps.
- I would also like to request the "play axis" feature that exists in Excel which brings animation in a scatter chart showing a live trend of your data.
Visual level filters don't work for me in either Power BI Desktop or Web versions. When I drag a column name over the 'Drag data fields here' box, the box outline lights up yellow, but the column name doesn't stick. It's possible to set the Page level filter, but that doesn't affect the range in the visual.
Has anyone been able to make the Visual level filter work?
Are you sure you're dragging a column and not a measure? There is a difference between the two.
