Would be awesome to be able to drill-down into different visualizations. For example, if I have a Pie chart and want to drill down into a stacked bar graph. Or is this already possible?

This is a very common feature in few of the BI tools.

RE: Drill Downs into Different Visuals

this drill down interplay would put pbi over the top strategically. Seems quite a shortcoming currently.

This is a requirement by my leads in my current project. I suppose this is not yet possible :(

Hopefully this would be really considered!

This is very important, since stakeholders are usually interested in deeper levels of information, which is achieved dynamically by hierarchies.
Identical visualisations is a strong limitation.

This really would make a huge difference to the usability of reports, enabling the visuals to change to more appropriate visuals as the data changes while drilling down.

I would be happy with visual drill down to a different report, and the drill down values to be used as report/page filters in the target report.

Other BI tools I have used have this feature, and I have found it is essential to create intuitive reporting

The functionality to drill down and also "See records" (drill through) could be customized, especially changing colors and where the details are displayed.

RE: Drill Downs into Different Visuals

This is really important, it makes the user-interactivity much easier and it is really the behaviour the user expects.

Of course you can keep both ways working, maybe differing by using CTRL key or something when you want to filter by two independient graphs.
