Impressive video! In my role as a Power BI developer, I collaborated with a UI/UX Designer team using Figma’s dashboard templates. Initially, translating Figma’s sophisticated designs to Power BI was a challenge, but I found a time-saving solution by adapting Figma templates as background images as you were doing. Now, I can effortlessly design my own backgrounds. A tip: export as SVG for optimal image quality in Power BI backgrounds.
I was under the impression that SVG couldn't handle the drop shadows and more complex imagery, but I just tried it to see on one of the backgrounds and was surprised to find it actually worked! Good tip 😄
Hats off to you ma'am! Such a well explained video on Figma! Please make more videos on this. As its very important for Power BI report background design. Thank U. New subscriber!!
Loved the video! Quick question about that background picture at 1:32 - the blue and green waves one. Did you get that from FIGMA? Where do you find these cool abstract shapes? Thanks!
Figma gives you a lot more control and more options for sure. PowerPoint gets recommended only because it’s something most people already have and are familiar with, not because it’s better for this. :)
No, that's some of it but it's mostly for making things fancy. This example was intentionally simplistic because it's a "basics" tutorial video, but where Figma really shines is having more control over the drop shadows and using background blur and gradients. Power BI can't do any of those things well... there is a drop shadow on shapes but it is not a good-looking drop shadow. :)

I am a ux designer working with data analysts and PBI, this tutorial is very helpful! Thanks 😊
Great to hear!
First video on the blend b/o PowerBI and Figma that was actually on point. Well done. Underrated channel.
Thank you! 😄
Thank you! Highly underrated channel.

Like a well-crafted Power BI report, your tips are clear, concise, and informative. Thank you!
HA thank you! 😄
Very well presented. Thank you
Great stuff Christine, thanks.
Thanks for your video 😊
❤ Many thanks!

I got it from here! unsplash.com/s/photos/abstract
@@bi-ome Ahh! Of course, thanks s lot!
Christine - Would you suggest I get into Figma or Powerpoint for this type of solution? Thanks.

Nice tutorial. So your main use case for figma is for faster loading right? Because in this example we can achieve everything with just powerbi

As for mobile view, you’ll need to create another layout for that too?
You can’t really use the background image method with mobile views as far as I can tell. It won’t let you add a one at all.
Thanks !! , Still can't apply figma for a mobile view?
Unfortunately it does not seem to be properly supported in mobile view. Hoping MS fixes this someday...
@@bi-ome Thanks 👍
