Hi all,
I downloaded and installed the december release but when I open the app, new features such as the ask a question or heatmap are not shown.
Any ideas why ? I am using the power bi desktop 64 bits.
Also I still have a bug with the map visual. The visual does not show anything in the desktop version but well in the online version I access with internet explorer.
Thanks for the help!
Hi @hdekeuleneer,
I have tested in Power BI desktop 2017 December release. Version: 2.53.4954.481
To enable "Q&A" functionality, you should checkbox the highlighted option under File->Options and Settings->Options->Preview features. Remember to restart desktop after enabling preview features.
For heatmap visual, as it is a custom visual, you should import it from office store.
Also I still have a bug with the map visual. The visual does not show anything in the desktop version but well in the online version I access with internet explorer.
What map visual did yo use? The map displays well in my environment. Pleas re-create your map visual for a test.
Regards,
Yuliana Gu
Thank you for the help!
I tried activating the Q&A and the shape map visual but it makes my PBI desktop unstable. I could not restart the app until the 6th attempt, so I disabled it and it works fine now.
Regarding the map, I am using the one with the round/spheric globe that is selected on your image showing how to import from store.
I tried re-creating the visual, it still doesn't show anything in PBI Desktop.
I'll have a look at the heatmap! Thanks !
Hi @hdekeuleneer,
All things you mentioned above worked fine in my environment. I was not able to reproduce your problem. Could you uninstall and reinstall the latest Power BI desktop for a test?

I have done this with the latest release and it has been done with admin rights...
Hi @hdekeuleneer,
Did you encounter the same problem if installing Power BI desktop on a different computer? Which version did you download? 64bit or 32-bit? Please try the differnet version for a test.
Regards,
Yuliana Gu
Hmm, mine showed up. I installed from the Store. Did you enable any new Preview features?
Hi All,
I downloaded and installed the december update PBIDesktop_x64. When I open the app, I do not see the new features such as "ask a question" or the "heatmap" visual.
Any idea why ?
I also still have the world map bug that the visual is not showing anything in the desktop app but well in the online version of the report that I access through my internet explorer.
