Enable to show or hide an object (chart, table, map, text box, filter, image, shape etc.) based on a condition. If a condition evaluates to TRUE than show the object, else hide it.

RE: Conditional show of objects on a report page

Used it all the time in Qlikview. It definitely adds more power to a BI tool! Bookmarks sadly do not conditionally show/hide based on particular field value.

RE: Conditional show of objects on a report page

As Power BI is a fast growing tool and we miss such basic feature at many place and we need to restrict client requests due to such limitations which are not possible by using bookmarks,

May I request Microsoft team to release this feature ASAP?

RE: Conditional show of objects on a report page

I used this all the time in SAP BO WebI. It would be very helpful to have this functionality in Power BI. Use case, a graph displays category. If the user selects one category in a slicer, the category graph is hidden and the subcategory graph is displayed. This makes more use of the space by eliminating the display of a graph with one value. Just one example.

Please - implement this. This is huge because it gives the developer so many options - e.g. pictures , conditionally showing of hiding charts e.g. It has thousands of implementations

RE: Conditional show of objects on a report page

Would be so great.
Example in my case.
I have a line chart with 7 lines, what is already quite charged.
But we would also need by type the moving average and target.
But I would only show these if one of the 7 categories is selected.
So at that moment we would show 3 lines ....
The value itself, the moving average, the target ...
