Drillthrough is an option that allows one or more reports, extracted on a separate report page, to be obtained based on the chosen dimension according to which we want to display its details. In this way, PowerBI reports get on interactivity, and by using this feature one complex report can be divided into several smaller and simpler ones, making it easier to find the information requested.
Appearance of the report is no longer only important thing, but also its interactivity. Therefore, new feature – buttons are added to PowerBI. These are graphic objects intended to give you a step backward, if you drilldown within the report, to launch a report that is recorded as a Bookmark or display a table/chart that was created as a result of a pre-designed question.
Shape Maps are predefined maps that are recently deployed as business intelligence visuals for Power BI Desktop, and contain predefined maps of organizational units (republics, regions, ares) within the state. This is a new functionality that is supported only for some countries, but it’s not bad idea to mention it as I believe that one day it will be available for more countries including Serbia.
Vector maps were always better than raster for better quality and more precise location display. Power BI since recently supports ArcGIS maps, based on Esri’s geographic information system, which in addition to common functionality of maps offers the ability to use some profound options and display statistics. The text that follows will be about the basic features of this visual.
When creating report visuals, their look is modified by dragging the dimensions and measures into different fields within the Visuals panel. One of the visuals fields is called Tooltip, and by adding values to this field we could see them as an additional clarification of report series after we position the mouse over them. Power BI Desktop now has the ability to add entire charts that behaves as a tooltip.
