change column heading
I assume you are speaking about the Table visualization in the report section.. You can't change the name of a column within a visual.
You need to change the name of the field you are using in the data set. You can't have column1 be customized for every visualization, it's column 1 in everything...
You can do this in various places.
Report View - Right click the field in the field list, Rename
right click the column
Data View - Right click in the field list like above, or right click the column name on the table.
I am aware that the name of a column cannot be changed, but what if you want to remove "Count of" from the name? Is this a posibility? or do you have to create a new column with the results that you need?
Thank you for any help.
Agree with this... in Power BI Service, the addition of "Count of" in front of the column name in a table view is bloody annoying and no obvious way to remove it. I have had to resort to a different visualisation, e.g. a bar chart with labels, or single text boxes... Its a workaround, but the table view would definitely be better.
Would be great if we the PBIS team could remove the "count of" from the column header.
