Default Grow To Fit, Auto-Size Width - October 2025 Release
To PBI developers and fellow users, The new October update bringing Grow to fit as a default has been frustrating to work with. As someone who has used Power BI for the better part of a decade I find it much cleaner and user friendly to manage my column widths instead of arbitrarily assigning widths based on the space of a block. This is how we all have been doing for years. Per the release notes: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-october-2025-feature-summary/ Auto expand table columns The Grow to fit option distributes extra space across columns for cleaner visuals. And I'm not the only one: As Kyle puts it, we are frustrated by being forced default options that, in our opinion, degrade user experience. I encourage making the service easier for new users to drop in things and make it look pretty with minimal effort. But now I have to go into each table and switch this setting each time I want to return to a traditionally auto-sized column. Please make the default "Fit to Content". Or at least give an option to set a client preference for one or the other. Thank you, generatorsam
Unable to sign-in to Report Builder
Hello, I have installed the lastest version of Power BI Report Buider (15.6.1340.2), but I can't sign-in. I have a premium account. Power BI Desktop works perfectly on this computer. I have to use a proxy to connect to Internet. The error message is shown in the following image : Thanks in advance for your help. FXDataset in report has null in colunm, but data exists when executing query in SSMS or DaxStudio
Hi all, Strange thing here. I have a dax query which works fine in SSMS and in Dax Studio when I connect to SSRS-Server instance. But the same query shows for one column all null values in Report Builder when testing my report. What can it be ? Here is the query : EVALUATE SUMMARIZECOLUMNS ( 'Datum'[Maand], 'StockTerminal'[LocationName], 'YearChart'[GroupedCommodity], 'Datum'[Datum], 'Datum'[JaarMaand], 'Datum'[Jaar], FILTER ( VALUES ( 'YearChart'[GroupedCommodity] ), ( 'YearChart'[GroupedCommodity] <> BLANK () ) ), KEEPFILTERS ( TREATAS ( { "ARRIVED" }, YearChart[InboundStatus] ) ), FILTER ( VALUES ( 'Datum'[Jaar] ), ( 'Datum'[Jaar] = YEAR ( TODAY () ) ) ), "Qty", [Qty], "QtyPreviousMonth", [QtyPreviousMonth], "QtySamePeriodeLY", [QtySamePeriodeLY], "QtySamePeriode2YAGo", [QtySamePeriode2YAgo], "Difference", ( [Qty] - [QtySamePeriodeLY] ), "Difference2423", ( [QtySamePeriodeLY] - [QtySamePeriode2YAgo] ) )
