    Need to be able to change the font size on the KPI tool. A stoplight visualization is needed most, but a set font size on the KPI tool makes it very limited regarding usability and alternate solutions.

    RE: KPI Customization (Font Size)

    It happens in virtually every project I attempt to complete with PowerBI, I start out excited about the potential of the visual until I hit the catch, which is a lack of formatting/functionality that is available in even the most basic freeware alternatives.

    I'm not sure what the issue is, but nobody who has any experience putting together reports in a professional setting would ever release the KPI visual without the ability to change the size of metric.

    The fact that PowerBI is developed by the industry authority only makes the current state of the program that much more baffling.

    Please allow users to change the font size. It is HUGE and takes up too much valuable space. Thanks!

    Please make this change. It is painful to watch the font size.

    Evidently, this was a feature, but it may have been removed in a later build. Reference this demonstration video from Tuesday, January 31, 2017 at the 5:06 mark: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-service-tutorial-kpi/

    The font for the KPI indicator is huge and does not shrink proportionally as you change the size of the visual. This greatly limits the real estate on the page to accommodate this visual.

    RE: KPI Customization (Font Size)

    is there another visual out there like KPI that can be sized appropriately?
