Modal dialogs look cool with a drop shadow effect. I like having a semi-transparent rectangle behind the dialog to grey-out the report behind the dialog. If you also set the background rectangle's action to close the dialog then the user can click anywhere on the background to close the dialog. Another fun challenge is to build dropdown menus using these techniques - the new custom icon buttons work really well for building menu items.

Your videos help me a lot both in terms of getting started with something within Power BI and also to explore many new options available in Power BI, keep up this awesome work and Thanks a lot!!

You can add a blank text box of the size of the page behind the popup window so that user does not interacts with the visuals or else if someone clicks on any visual that visual gets on top of the popup window. Also, you can add the the close button bookmark to that blank text box so if user click anywhere on the page it will close the popup window.

Great job, Patrick! I've been thinking about adding pop-ups, and this video is just what I need!

[curtfunk]

This is a great workaround for the lack of popups in PBI. Just imagine also if you could have conditional popups (like when you load the report, a popup will appear based on a value in a card to highlight, perhaps, that action is required ).

Thank you so, so much for the very clear and detailed explanation on how to get this working on a Power BI report. I was worried about cluttering the page, but this is such an amazing feature.

[asureshkumarin]

Very smart 👍🏻. The idea of keeping a tooltip slide on selection, is also one of my favourites. Thanks 😇

[sirozhiddinbaltabayev]

Awesome 👏 thank you so much! Found exactly what I needed, very helpful!

[dipteshbose]

[IonbeamGreg]

I love it !
And it solved one of my issue with bookmark... I haven't notice the uncheck data parameter... !!!!

[akshayenavale]

Thanks Patrick for great video. I think there should be in-build visual in power bi which can show all filters list.

[juanit_o]

The place to find solutions to my problems. Thanks!

[roseventura]

Very cool. I use pop-ups but had trouble keeping the current pop-up open when opening another. Thanks for clarifying that!

[davidchandler]

Nice way to keep track of filters when you have a lot on a page and you use dropdowns

[nicolasblum]

thank you so much scceeded easily!
:)

[MoustafaElzeftawy]

Man, I'm coming a year later. It's brilliant. Thanks so much!

[alfredlear]

You guys are the best for showing off the shiny, shiny things power BI can do.
Love it 👍

Great video. Is there anyway to have the pop-up automatically open and close on a timer ie 20 seconds.
