Yes please! Snap to grid makes it a lot easier; but this is really necessary.

At least we could have a nice P&L in Power BI!

Agree that this would remove a big differentiator from Tableau.

RE: Vertical and horizontal multiples (Small Multiples/Trellis)

This is one of the best competitive advantages Tableau has over Power BI. Using formulas to manipulate the row and columns shelves to create a 3X3 or 5x5 trellis or just a simple vertical or horizontal small multiples viz.

R integration in Power BI can get us part way with the faceting in ggplot2, but I think we lose out on potential for meaningful interactions.

I would be nice if this was a built-in feature for Power BI that allowed for some cool brushing interactions between the multiple to help with comparisons.
