    You are definitely the best Power BI UA-camr I've found! All your videos are great and flow really well. I've seen lots of people that have good info, but their presentation skills are lacking, or vice/versa. You combine info and presentation skills equally at an expert level. Keep up the great work!

    Great video, for the alignment and distribution, like power point, Power BI has a tool to equally distribute and align these forms. Select the forms > Arrange > Align > Distribute Horizontally

    @HowtoPowerBI brilliant set of tricks, as a Product Owner and not a PowerBI user at all, I followed these and the difference is incredible, the reports now look sharp, modern, well laid out, aligned etc. Really useful!

  • @martinbubenheimer6289

    Very nicely done. One idea for usability of reports that are used in meetings: It might make sense to use colors for categories that can clearly and easily be named without confusing it with other colors. Otherwise discussions might go like: "Can you explain that small dark turquoise section?" - "You mean this one?" - "No, not the cadet blue one. The slightly darker one." - "That one?" - "No, that's the dark sea green one." - "What!?" 😂

  • @matthewhawkshaw3600
    @matthewhawkshaw3600 Рік тому +12

    Love the simple design tips! Be careful using background images as it often breaks the accessible colour modes (I believe - unless it’s been fixed recently). Won’t always be critical depending on your audience and how your reports are used.

    • @greenc1088

    @juanm555 11 місяців тому +3

    the technique at 7:10 might be good for when you are trying to group several visuals together, however nowadays I just use padding to create the same effect (plus less objects to compete for processing). I find that 15-20px padding looks quite nice in a lot of ocassions.

    The formatting tab has the Align button that lets you do automatic distribution to get even spacing either horizontally or vertically.

  • @paulrockliffe2378
    @paulrockliffe2378 Рік тому +5

    I think trick number 6 would be to set the Report Wallpaper to match or contrast so it stays looking nice, but then Step 7 would be to make sure your App colours are set to match too. Then you remember that you can't set custom colours in your App and it all falls down!
    It's worth bearing in mind that you might want to constrain your design choices so they still work really well wherever the report ends up being embedded, Teams, Sharepoint, the PowerBI App, Report Service and Apps all wrap slightly different stuff around your design. The lack of Custom App colours really annoys me!

    Nice Tips! Specially the one using the canvas screenshot to place correctly the objects on Power Point.
    For the white space I would also recommend to use the shadow without glowing and centralize it! A good way to do the white space without the need of another object in the canvas.

    Hi Bas
    I am using some png images as my background for a report. I wanted to make sure that the images are of a high quality but unfortunately Power BI takes some time to load the background and my visuals seem kinda incomplete for a brief while. I tired SVG while exporting from PowerPoint but the text gets misaligned for some reason. Any suggestion you have would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Can you further explain this step and how you size the screenshot from power bi into powerpoint? Thanks!

    I don't know how this report will look like if we open it in another screen size. As you created it by making a screen capture and created dark slots to put graph inside. So when we open in another screen like desk monitor, these dark slots can be expanded more horzontally and your graph can go out of these slots?
