The 'Turn off visual header in reading mode' introduced in March 2018 is all or nothing. It would be much better to have the ability to chose visual by visual if we want to show the header in reading mode or not.

RE: visual header becoming optional visual by visual

I agree. The export and sort feature are vital. Either turning it on with a right click on the mouse or by selectively hiding the visual headers is a must.

Thank you,
Travis

RE: visual header becoming optional visual by visual

Thank you for the ability to turn off all visual headers - that is very helpful and much appreciated.

However, there are many situations where we need to switch off the visual headers for most visuals, but still allow them for a subset of specific visuals in our reports.

Ideally, we would like to be able to turn off visual headers SELECTIVELY (per visual)

But if that is not possible, perhaps a workaround would be to allow access to the export and sort functions via right-click?

Currently, the visual header functions on the LEFT side (drill-down etc.) are still available via right-click. In other words, the workaround would be to use right-clicking to access all the functions from the RIGHT side (export, show data, sort, focus, spotlight etc.)

RE: visual header becoming optional visual by visual

It must be optional for me - on some pages I will have people drilldown but not on other. The current feature -all or nothing- is not helping me at all
