Changes introduced in the Power BI Desktop May 2023 update Part one of a five-part series of blogs |
---|
The big event this month is the (long-awaited) release of Azure Maps, but the May 2023 update also includes the official launch of the Optimize ribbon and allows you to use measures as data labels, among other changes.
We've been creating our idiosyncratic monthly blogs on Power BI updates since November 2016, and also deliver online and classroom Power BI courses. |
Here are the main changes in the May 2023 Power BI Desktop update for report-writers:
Change | Notes |
---|---|
The Azure Maps visual is now officially (finally!) part of Power BI Desktop, and will replace the other current Power BI map visuals over time. | |
You can now set the data labels for a chart to be the value of a measure or other field. | |
Another feature emerging from preview, the main new feature that the Optimize ribbon provides is the ability to pause and restart visuals. | |
Other new features include hybrid tables for DirectQuery users, a new DAX function (MATCHBY) and improved accessibility keystrokes for matrix users. |
The new on-object interaction formatting feature is still being improved in preview; I look forward to including it in this series of blogs on Power BI Desktop updates as soon as it's released!
