It should be good if we can set Drill Mode ON/OFF by DEFAULT instead of clicking manually on the arrow every time on report.

We have improved this by allowing the drill action to take place inside the tooltip. Marking as completed. We will do more updates here but the initial item has been addressed.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Someone has created a new idea, which asks for the ability to set this by default. Feel free to vote for it. https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=26e9cb97-bb06-ed11-b5cf-281878de6c19

RE: Drill Mode By Default

What is the status with this 8 year old request?? How can I enable Drill-down for all my users by default on a certain visual?

Dear Ali,


This idea you mark as completed but still we don't see any option in Power BI to set drill down mode behavior on by default.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

It is not updated. Please update it to the latest version. Automatic drill down.

Than you

RE: Drill Mode By Default

This is absolutely not fixed/completed. Please just make the drill-down turned on by default - that's all people have been asking! The hover over option is not that efficient.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Administrator, I think you misunderstand the nature of the request. It is not completed. If it were the Matrix would automatically drill down.

When using Field Parameters (so the report user can select rows to display) they must use the drill down function with every change, Annoying, and many users will never understand the finding and use of the drill down - assuming they select the correct drill down........

RE: Drill Mode By Default

This idea is not completed at all. How can it be marked as completed?

RE: Drill Mode By Default

My customer really need to add this function that drill down action set as default on. Right click to drill down is still ambiguous for our customer. Please add default setting on off to make this function more clear.
