To address the challenges of organizing and presenting data due to the limitations of column and row headers, a potential solution would be to implement a new matrix visual with customizable controls, allowing report creators to adjust the dimensions of columns and rows, group them hierarchically, apply diverse styles, and use conditional formatting.

Definitely feels like it was missing when I went looking for it - work around of white text doesnt really work. With row header we can manually adjust the size of the column to nothing - this doesnt work for rows unfortunately.

One would have thought this is a straight forward exercise.

Really, no option to disable visual headers - unbelievable!!!! Other analytic tools have this option. Please add option to NOT show column headers. Would also like to have option to disable column sort on table visuals - whole table and/or selected columns.

Simple functionality such as this feature creates resistance migrating from Tableau to Power BI.

You can already do this in Tableau... This should be a quick, easy fix please!

Pretty please? Remove table headers. Seems so easy.

This would be great. As it stands, if I want to have a row of measures without headers, I need to create a table and then cover up the headers with a square the same color as the background. It's less than ideal.

An easy change and an easy win! Come on MS. We shouldn't have to fiddle with font colours to try to hide these in 2022.

There are use cases where you want the functionality of a list with out the header. Simply changing the font and background color to white still leaves the space where the header is. Allowing the header to be turned off would increase the versatility of the list visual greatly.
