Help with Overlapped PowerBI Matrix Formatting

Hello,

 

Please refer to the attached screenshot. I have 12 matrix visuals overlapped and aligned on top of one another. All the visuals have same formatting settings (grid colors, spacings etc.). Everytime with different viewing options (actual, fit to width, full size), the grid lines seems to rearrange amongst themselves. Sometimes the lines have different color shades, sometime dark, sometimes light. This also happens whenever new numbers are populated within the frames. Overall, the page looks little disorganized and inconsistent.

 

I'm finding it almost impossible to maintain a uniform formatting. The X,Y coordinates are all perfectly aligned. Is this a normal behavior of PowerBI or is there something wrong with the design? The reason why we have overlapping frames in because of a requirement to replicate an excel sheet.

Kindly assist.

 

Regards,

RB

Hey @rbhattacharya ,

 

I'm not sure if this will help, but maybe grouping all the single matrix visuals into a single group.

Next to that, from a personal perspective I would not recommend that. If you want pixel perfect reporting, you have to use paginated reports.

You also have to remember that you will fix the the column width, it's a formatting option.

 

Hopefully, this provides some ideas on how to tackle this challenge.

 

Regards,

Tom
