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

This should be a simple enhancement. Right now, related pages/tabs can not be differentiated graphically/visually other than reading the captions.

RE: Report tab color

Seems a no brainer to me. The whole tab functionality is a bit simple and clunky and could do with a rehaul. This and an arrow feature to not have to scroll through all tabs to get back to the start.

RE: Report tab color

To cardify visuals I can either apply a background to each object (with format painter) or simply change the color of the page. it would make sense to apply this color to the tab also. I can't imagine it would be difficult.

RE: Report tab color

This is very basic functionality that should be added together with an easier way to re order the pages (instead of dragging and dropping , because with a lot of pages this is very time consuming)

RE: Report tab color

I VOTE for this,

And i guess this should be a default option to change the colour of the Report Tab.
Awaiting to get this added to the upcoming versions.
