The ability to Hide, unhide, or color report tabs, in the same way as Excel allows the user to hide, unhide or color sheets.

Also include this feature in the online version so that when a user publishes their work to powerbi.com, their hidden tabs, unhidden and colored tabs translate to the website.

This is useful when sharing a report with others, and the user wants others to only see certain tabs, or to focus on just the red tabs.

RE: Report tab color

Tab colors will help group high-level vs detailed information.

Can we please please get this on the roadmap. Such a simple feature

RE: Report tab color

It would be ideal to change the TAB colors, same as Excel. This would be perfect to "group" tabs together for a particular department or to denote a TAB that is more important than others

RE: Report tab color

Please add the ability to change tab font color. We have to comply with accessibility standards and our embedded Power BI reports are failing because of the low contrast of the tab font and the arrows to navigate the tabs.

RE: Report tab color

I've been waiting for this very useful feature for about 3 year.

RE: Report tab color

This would be *really* usefull, and surely not that hard to implement?

RE: Report tab color

Yeah, colored tabs would be really useful. I create multi-department reports and would love to color code by department

RE: Report tab color

Certain departments want to see certain tabs. The ability to color tabs would be very helpful.

RE: Report tab color

I need this SO badly right now - I get it might seem a little 'childish' to developers, but they're massively useful!

RE: Report tab color

How has this not been deployed to production yet?? Such a basic feature that should have been available at Launch of PBI if not at least done by now. Come on MS.
