Why when I select a visual in a dashboard on power bi web It send me to the original report?

Hello... I'd like to know why when I select a visual in a dashboard on power bi web It send me to the original report?..

 

I believe when I create a dashboard and I pin some visuals on it they should interact with each other without send me to the original report, isn´t it?. Is it possible?.

 

If this works this way... How can I enlarge the visuals zone on some report in order to scroll down instead of to use more pages?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Miltinho.

@Anonymous I think the missing piece is functionality to share a report. Lucky for you, it appears that they are currently working on that functionality. - https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/7122026-share-reports-in-power-bi

This would eleviate this issue as the shared object would have the visualizations that would interact. Thus, allowing you to ignore the dashboards.

@Anonymous This is expected behaviour. Dashboard tiles are the high level visual that allow you to drill down to the report for further analysis. If you want to, from the report itself you can select "Pin Live Page" to have the entire report page pinned to the dashboard to interact with the slicers and visuals from that location.

Ok... thanks @Seth_C_Bauer, however I don't like that behavior. I can't to find a good use to that. Just to see visuals in phones although we can see reports in them too.

 

Kind regards,
