    I've used many BI solutions like tableau, and have always benefited tremendously form being able to zoom in an interesting section of a chart. especially when there is lots of data in it. eg a scatter plot with hundreds or thousands of points, and being able to zoom in a particular interesting cluster, and make it fill the whole chart area.Likewise on a time/series chart. especially when there are alot of data points over a long interval

    RE: zoom in on a chart to isolate a set of data

    This is really important when you are managing hundreds or thousands of bubbles.

    Slicers or selections could be insufficient sometimes to get a complete picture or to carry out detailed analysis.

    Please include!

    Dears:

    I am fully agree with @Warren.Cowan.
    i am now testing Qlik Sense Desktop (because my company is also interested in this app), and I see you have the possibility to:
    -Zoom in / out in Scatter chart.
    - Use a "bow" to carry out complex selections or select a particulary set of data points.

    I strongly recommend to add these features into PowerBi Desktop.

    Regards,

    Being able to draw a rectangle/circle/free line on a chart to select certain groups of data would definitely be a great option!

    That is great! Other visualisation tools already offer it!

    Interesting, i would have figured there would be many more requests for this capability.
