Limitations

Not available yet​

  • Bookmarks. The visual does not save its own view state in a Power BI bookmark yet. What you set is saved with the report (see Saving), not per bookmark.
  • Charts in files. The Export to Excel and Export to PDF files do not draw the bar, waterfall and needle charts yet. Charts are drawn as pictures when you copy the table.

Needs Power BI to allow it​

  • Downloads. Excel and PDF export need the Power BI setting that allows custom visuals to download files (see the Export tab).
  • Drill control. Under Lazy Loading the visual switches Power BI's drill off, so the drill buttons are not available. If a Power BI host cannot switch drilling off, the visual works around it.
  • Focus Mode button. The Settings button opens Focus Mode only on hosts that allow a visual to do that.

Power BI features the visual does not use yet​

Keyboard focus for Power BI's own navigation, sync slicers, highlighting from other visuals, selecting several visuals together, a landing page for an empty visual.

Sorting​

Sort Ascending / Descending in the column menu hand the sort to Power BI. A header that has no field to sort by - the Total, a chart column - cannot be sorted.
