touchscreen

the experience with app.powerbi.com on a touch screen is problematic becuase panning around on a report results in the tiles moving rather than the screen panning. Is there anyway to lock the tiles down?

The tiles should lock down if you are in Reading View.

How do I set "Reading View"   the only settings I see for a dashboard are to turn on the QA and to turn on "Tile flow."   If I open a dashboard somebody shared with me then I"m fine but any dashboard I created by default the tiles are moveable as soon as you open the dashboard

You had initially said panning around on a report. With a dashboard, there is no way to lock the tiles.

Gotcah, I'm still learning their lingo.

 

Is this a documented deficiency somewhere?  Right now we can't use our dashboards on tablets or surfaces because of this.  Surely others experience the same thing with the prevalence of touchscreen devices.
