Export to PowerPoint reveals "hidden" Pages, and the "hidden" pages contribute to the maximum of export limit of 15 pages. It would be great if:
a) the hidden pages did not contribute to the maximum 15 pages
b) the hidden pages were not revealed when exported to PowerPoint

Hi everyone, This is coming soon when we also release filtered export capabilities in the service. We’ll have an update on this status shortly! Thanks, Chris

This is absolutely needed! A hidden page is not meant to be visible to the client. This is a defect.

This is definitely a bug. I cannot see why would someone would like to export to PowerPoint what was not initially displayed in the online version.

Let's see how long it takes for Power BI team to add this extra line of code "if hidden then continue;" :D

Agree with this. Preferably remove the 15 page limit too and add the export feature to desktop.
