Drillthrough on desktop with touch screen??

[Anonymous]

General question.  I know the mobile app has drill up and down, but how would you go about employing drillthrough with a report to a windows PC using a touchscreen?

Drill through with a touch screen isn't good honestly. The fix is pretty simple though.

• Enable drill through as normal
• Add the new Drill Through button capability

Now when someone with a touch screen taps on a number, the drill though button becomes active, and they can tap on that.

See the May 2020 desktop updates. Drill Through buttons have been available for about 3 months, and are now generally available. You can also create ONE button along with a slicer to control multiple drill throughs, which is more intuitive for the end user and saves screen real estate. The link above walks you through that process.

Hopefully one day I'll get to try this, but I'm stuck on Dec 19 download installer, as the Microsoft Store version crashes my Report, a known issue they have not fixed in 5 months...
