is it possible to add support for "duration" data type in the report view as in Power Query?

RE: field of "duration" type

That would be great to have available this feature in Power BI.
I've seen many requests about this subject.
As far as I know, that request is so far suggested and until now i't's not been applied, I think that maybe can be a technical issue.

RE: field of "duration" type

Agreed! It is a lovely duration in Power Query, so why can't it also appear in Power Pivot?! Need duration that includes: days h:mm:ss and some folks also need the ms on the end. Most of my durations exceed 24 hours, so days is a critical component.
Thank you!!

This is a massive missing element in Power BI.

RE: field of "duration" type

Please bring up Excel's [h]:mm:ss format in Power BI ASAP! It's a pity to miss this feature in such a great tool.
