Pencil icon to edit title missing

[Mynda]

In this video they show how to edit the title of a tile using the pencil icon but I don't see the same icon in the Power BI service as is shown in the video. Does anyone know where it has gone, or how to edit a title in the Power BI service now?

Thanks,

Mynda

Hi Mynda ((waving frantically)),

I've just been through all my dashboards in the online page and can see the edit icon on all the tiles, even very old dashboards that I created yonks ago. So, age is not a factor.

The tile edit options as shown in that video apply to dashboard tiles only, though. They don't show up when clicking the ... ellipsis on report tiles. 

Just to make sure ... is the edit icon missing when you click the ellipsis on dashboard tiles? In a report, you need to

- select the visiualisation

- click the brush icon in the Visualizations panel

- find the title section and have at it. 

cheers, Ingeborg

🙂 Hi Ingeborg ((waving frantically back)),

I don't have the pencil icon in the Dashboard view as shown in that video, although I can edit it in the Report view under the paint brush > Title settings, which is further than I got myself, so a big thank you for pointing that out!

I know they have to update Power BI for new features but I really wish they'd stop moving things that already work and they have tutorials for. Very frustrating. Otherwise I love it.
