Alternative to Plus (+) or Minus (-) sign in Power BI Matrix

Hi Everyone,

This is regarding power bi Matrix.

Will it be possible to bring the text of rows as link instead of bringing Plus (+) or Minus (-) sign?

And on clicking the link, only the plus or minus should be done.

Is this possible? If not, what is the alternative?

@avinaash , Not very clear. Click on text to open(+) is not possible, you can drill down or drill through. You can switch off +/- button and use drill arrows on the header. Or use bookamrks.

 

You can expand all level and switch off the stepped layout if needed

I wouldn't say solved. I have concerns of a similar nature. I have a matrix and the +/- icons I want to replace with a single button to change the states between them to show more info. I want to create a +/- button via bookmarking so that I can get a better view, or change out text that I don't want or need using bookmark navigation. As far as I know, power BI won't let you use a boolean text to switch between two states on one button. For example, +/-, true/false, yes/no, unless you have one icon that has both in. But you are consigned to one character.  |+| lets say this box is your button, its on and off state will be |+| whether selected or deselected. I want to be able to have |+| |-| on the same button. Not two buttons, just one. Has anyone found any kind of work around? How about more than two states for the future? Anyone got a solution for that?
