Power BI desparately needs to support:

Synchronised Drill down across multiple charts with the same hierarchy on the same page (or across the report)

It is extremely annoying, if I have seveal graphs, to have to drill down or up on each of them individually. A feature that allows you to synchronise the drill down state selected charts would be make the user interface incredibly friendly!

We would love to have this. As it is, I may end up working around this by adding tabs in the report that the report designer can "pre-drill" for the viewer.

RE: Synchronised Drill Down across multiple charts with same hierarchy!

Would be very convenient to show numbers over time (in a matrix visual) and visualize them (in a line or area chart) on the same report page. Without being synchronized when drilling in the time axis such pages get confusing as matrix and chart are not in sync re time drill level. Can think of as having one master visual controlling the drill in itself and all other linked visuals on same page.

If added, this will be an extremely useful feature as it is quite common to have multiple visuals using the same hierarchy on one page.

Please add this, it makes sense on so many levels!

Definitely needed. Will be a very powerful feature. Using bookmarks as a workaround is horrible.

I created a similar idea, only came across this one by searching for something else. Would be great to have this.
