Power BI Report Server should have an option to open the report in Full Screen mode just as it has an option in Power BI Service . When we open reports in Power BI Report Server , we can view page in 3 options 1:) Fit to Width , 2:) Fit to Page and 3:) Actual size . Issue with these three mode is the page and header consumes a lot of space and we need to scroll to view to full report .

RE: Full Screen mode in Power BI Report Server

Anthony, thanks a lot for that! Was the workaround I found so far. I just want to add something:

If you enter Full Screen on the Browser (F11) and use the ?rs:embed=true that Anthony suggested then you're in total full screen.

Also if you don't want users to have to change links to get to full screen you can easily explain to them that they can use:
1.F11 for Full Screen
2.Zoom In Zoom Out without affecting the report layout, only the rest of the webpage until they get to the best view possible

RE: Full Screen mode in Power BI Report Server

Hello guys, if you right click in a Power BI report and go to 'View frame source', you will see that the URL in the frame starts with something like this 'http://srv-report/powerbi/?id=587bfcec-7d3a-4439-86c7-bbf956088fe3'
If you go directly to this URL, you will have the report in full screen.

Agree that there's nothing as a menu option, but you can add ?rs:embed=true to the URL to kinda get a more full screen view.
