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

Why is this marked as completed? You still cannot enable this by default.

Mohammad Ali (administrator) , we do not see this in the latest released version. If it's there, please elaborate, and if not you need to update this.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Please fix soon, especially since this is marked as completed, not a good look for Microsoft or its Products.

This is not completed. When are we going to see this implemented? I have the latest version of the PBI desktop but dont see it there.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

Hi there - contrary to the "administrator" comment and mark as completed, the initial request has not been addressed. Allowing drill down one time through right clicking is not the same as enabling drill mode by default for a visual. Please just add this as something that's saved, even if it's only as part of bookmarks. This would make my dashboard much, much easier to use.

Any update on this feature ?It actually is frustrating for Senior executives to toggle on/off the drilldown button, Would be nice if toggle option is saved along with file save option.

RE: Drill Mode By Default

The status says it would be done by 2021.....This makes so much more sense to have a default set to on then making users repeat the click process. Hope to see very soon!!

RE: Drill Mode By Default

How on earth is this still not implemented? Very annoying. Some end-users aren't savvy enough to know to click that button every, single, time. And besides, why should you have to?We need the option to have drill down on by default.
