It would be great if you could select multiple columns in the data view e.g. the hide multiple columns from the report view in one operation.

RE: Allow selecting multiple columns in the data view

When you have a large table, this will be big time saver instead of going column by column ...

This should also apply to measures so you can hide or format multiple at a time. In addition, can the unhide all please have a 'are you sure' modal. Really frustrating when you click that after tediously hiding columns 1 at a time

RE: Allow selecting multiple columns in the data view

this is the biggest issue I have with PowerBi. Wastes my time with formatting single columns, ie changing columsn to currency, etc etc

RE: Allow selecting multiple columns in the data view

I found this thread while searching for a method to change the default field summary from sum to average for 60 fields. This lack of functionality means my company will now be paying me to make countless, tedious and repetitive mouse clicks instead of what they actually hired me to do.

RE: Allow selecting multiple columns in the data view

A joke I have to select one at a time, just like Microsoft to make a half assed tool that they will cancel in 2 years like everything else phone, ATL, apis. They killed odata with no datetime field mysq doesn't have a timezone -- retartds

So sad!
