Need a way to select all fields at one time so that I don't have to go through and individually select or drag fields into my visual

RE: select all fields

I've wanted this option many times - and am frustrated every time. I wonder why this wasn't done from the start...

RE: select all fields

This should be a priority. I mean I'm having to add each field individually, and then changing some of the fields so they don't summarize. But sometimes I accidentally delete the field and then have to add it back. Ugh. The field should have an asterisk or something to indicate that it's been summarized - otherwise I have to manually look.

RE: select all fields

Yup, please simply add that option in the menu, or enable Ctrl + A for fields.

RE: select all fields

This is definitely very useful, I have a table of 20 columns showing some flags in each it's very time consuming and tiresome to keep clicking 20 times when you could simply drag a table to report and there you have everything you need, how can the developers of Power BI never thought of this ? It's a very basic feature on almost any reporting / dashboard tool in the market today.

RE: select all fields

In addition there should also be a feature to add or remove columns directly from body without having to trying to find out the columns in the menu. Any feature that is available as part of the menu should also be directly accessible from report body.
