The ‘Full Screen mode’ could become more useful for presenting reports on dedicated large screens if it became just a bit more dynamic. Whilst it is currently possible to scroll through report sheets by clicking the arrows in the bottom right corner, it would be most valuable to be able to automate such browsing. A solution could be to introduce a “Play” button that starts a slideshow scrolling through the available report sheets according to a customizable time interval.

One way to achieve this is to have multiple browser tabs with different dashboards on each. There are browser add-ons that can then flip between tabs automatically after a set delay.

RE: Slideshow in Full Screen/TV mode

We have multiple screens in the office showing KPIs. At present, I have multiple Google Chrome windows open with a plugin to refresh the report once every 6 hours. I also have to have an application that switches between Chrome windows to show different reports. If this could be automated in PowerBI, it would save me time having to setup the reports on the individual screens when a power cut happens or if Chrome crashes!

We are a using the Microsoft BI stack in SharePoint 2010 with SSRS we want to use this feature with PowerBI to leverage the Enhanced graphics of PowerBI to get the wow factor on Customer tours and Top Management.

As part of this feature, please also consider incorporating visuals which have a "play" feature.

It would be great a chromecast app to allow direct access to dashboards and reports using any kind of TV without a computer connected to it

Many customers show Dashboards in big televisions and it's a huge improvement to PowerBI render the reports on TVs. Its important changing the render after some minutes on the television, to show different Dashboards.

This is a really important feature for my organization but unfortunately the vizulizations don't update automatically.
