Develop an item formatting property which allows to set the visibility of a report item when you want to conditionally hide the item based on a report parameter or some other expression that you specify (also DAX expressions).
You can develop this incrementally starting from visuals, then text boxes, then shapes and buttons....
If you want to go the extra mile, you can also develop a functionality that allows the final user to toggle the visibility of report items.
For more information and since it was an available and really useful capability see "Add an Expand or Collapse Action to an Item (Report Builder and SSRS)".

I double checked in the ideas database and there are many ideas describing the same functionality; this is the reason why I do believe this is really required and will try to collect all the previous votes under this item.

RE: Visibilty (Hide an Item)
Hide / Show the visual based on dax measure would be really helpful. Many options would be available.This is really critical in developing the reports and making Power BI solution so flexible.
RE: Visibilty (Hide an Item)
To me this functionality should be integrated to PBI to avoid fiddling around with "Excel-Hack-Like" workarounds.Those have already been used in the last century. Imagine the digital transformation discussed everywhere is using a suboptimal analog handling resulting like that. This leads only to a suboptimal digital process.If a data given condition is made available e.g. in a measure, it should be possible to use it as a property of a visual / a page to set visibility.E.g. dashboard from an error report shows only counts of errors. If all possible errors are 0 there is no need to show an extra table-visual with an empty list or the extra page documenting the errors (becuse the visual would be empty as well).Thank you.
RE: Visibilty (Hide an Item)
This is essential for our work in Power BI. It is such a pain in the neck to set everything to transparent...and it doesn't work for visuals with no conditional color possibilities.
RE: Visibilty (Hide an Item)
They have this same functionality in Power Apps. I see no reason why it can't be over in another program in the Power Platform.
RE: Visibilty (Hide an Item)
Enable to show or hide an object (chart, table, map, text box, filter, image, shape etc.) based on a condition. If a condition evaluates to TRUE than show the object, else hide it. +1
RE: Visibilty (Hide an Item)
It would be nice to be able to have a visible property on images, text boxes, single cards or shapes which occurs when a certain condition is met.
ie I want to have a Text box display saying "Failed" or have an image of a red x be visible if the dataset has a value in the success column of 0.
