From now on, you can edit the comment settings by clicking on the ‘Settings’ icon in the comment box top-left corner. You will see the possibility to change the Title, decide on which variance to show, choose the variance icon, adjust the padding, define the gap between comments, and turn on/off the shadow. There is also an option to reset everything to default at any time. Additionally, you can adjust the font settings for the title by clicking on it directly on the visual.

To access this feature, you need to visualize the data with a single-measure waterfall (or bridge) chart. Open the formatting pane and set the settings under Difference highlight (by default toggled to on). Besides adjusting several settings (e.g. labels, connecting line design, shapes, etc.) you will also find a new setting called ‘Show for all subtotals’ (toggled on by default)on the top where you can toggle this new feature to off (and keep just the difference highlight for the last result).

This will change the view to a matrix view organized by columns and rows (e.g., Category and Segment). Of course, the charts are also perfectly scaled for easier data interpretation.
Save the legend name by clicking the Enter key or clicking outside of the input field.

To access the new settings simply right-click on the respective x-axis element (category) and mark it as a Result. Now if you right-click again, you will also see the Scenario pattern options and you can select the appropriate one.
First, head to the Format panel and search for the section Design. In the dropdown under Style choose Custom. Toggle on the option for More colors and apply the colors you wish to Previous year, Plan, and/or Forecast. Now go to the Legend section and toggle on the switch next to the “Use colored legend names” to apply the changes.
Additionally, we fixed some other issues related to the legend-making it more functional, clear, and concise.

Additionally, the comment box can now be displayed in different positions: right, left, or at the bottom of the chart. You can now specify the number of columns, and the comments are displayed left-to-right in columns.
You can now also set different design settings for the comment box like set inner and margin padding or apply different background fill. You can also switch the border On or Off. If switched On, then you can also choose settings for border width, border color, border radius, and/or shadowing options.
Finally, for more control over the elements that are displayed in the comment title, users can now specify the icon (choose from triangle, circle, or circle with arrow) and variance label (display relative, absolute, or both variances).

You can see a lot of these changes in action in our Impact of COVID-19 on the global stock markets report.
NOTE: This version uses Microsoft Custom Visuals API 2.3, which requires minimum November Update of PBI Desktop and January Update of PBI for Report Server.
WARNING: Due to a missing feature in Microsoft CV API 2.3, two-dimensional small multiples (two fields in the Group bucket) cannot display correct chart legends. We're working on a workaround together with Microsoft. Until this is resolved, please use version 2.2 if you are using two-dimensional small multiples in your reports.

You will find the new feature in the formatting pane under Data labels. Just above the ‘percentage point’ setting, there is a new global toggle setting called ‘Use basis point format’ that by default is toggled off. When you turn it on, the setting for renaming the percentage point abbreviation ‘pp’ also changes into ‘bp’ (basis point). When the setting is on, all percentage point numbers are multiplied by 100 to show the basis point correctly. If you want to, you can also rename the setting based on your needs.
To enable even clearer visualizations, you will also see a new setting ‘Suppress relative variance for percentage values. By using it you can hide the percentage growth of percentage change.
There is also a new feature ‘Percentage point decimals’ under Data labels settings. It lets users define how many decimals should be included in the cells formatted as percentage points or basis points.

Zebra BI Tables is now the fastest custom Power BI visual when it comes to loading the data. Before this update, we needed to fetch all the data when a user opened a report, even for the collapsed rows. Now, the new Zebra BI Tables 6.0 visual fetches data on-demand, only for the rows you expand as it is running on one of the latest Microsoft APIs.
To access it, open the Formatting pane > Interaction. Choose Row hover and if the setting is set to ‘’Highlighting’’, you can further define the ‘’Interactive hover color’’ and ‘’Interactive hover color opacity’’. There is also a ‘’Reset to default’’ button.
Previously, whenever we added a new setting, it was impossible to make them bookmarkable without affecting the current bookmarks. As Zebra BI Tables 6.0 was submitted as a new visual, we decided to enable bookmarks for all the settings.
IMPORTANT: if you simply switch from 5.4 to 6.0, your current bookmarks will not be saved, and you will need to create them again.
You can access the calculation manager by right-clicking on a category name and selecting Manage calculations.
New features:
If the comment marker is one of the calculation columns (ΔFC, ΔFC%…), the first value in the calculation gets displayed alongside the variances. If the comment marker is on the base measures' columns (PL, AC...) the corresponding value is displayed alongside the variances. If the comment marker is on the additional measure, only the corresponding value is shown without variances.
To access the individual column settings simply hover over the column header in question and click on the dropdown arrow right of the column name. You will find the ‘Suppress others’ checkbox among the column settings. Marking the checkbox will hide the values on the ‘Others’ row of that column.

The great thing about this new feature is that it allows you to delete one or more formulas on the visual or edit one or even more formulas at once. For example, you can select multiple formulas and set the same font color or number format to all of them in one go.
Turn on your subtotal and total columns by hovering over the top of your columns and click on the Add columns (+ symbol) at the top of your Categories list. Access the format settings on the total columns the same way as for any other column in Zebra BI Tables by hovering over the column name and clicking on the down arrow symbol.

There is also a neat tooltip that will inform you about the dimensions of the cards.
To access this, a user can open the Settings pane and see the newly added Legend section. Simply change the default aliases by entering new names that match your needs best.
To ensure flexibility in use, you can of course also change only the background color on each individual card as well. To change that, open the selected card in focus mode where you will find a new setting called Background color. Simply choose the desired color and return to the report. This is perfect for applying brand colors, highlighting specific cards, and for dark-themed reports.

With this new feature, users can define the font size, color, and style.
To access the feature, open the global toolbar and click on the dropdown arrow next to Fonts. Customize the font options to best fit your needs.
With the latest updates, the KPIs have three different stages: YTD total, total and last period. By clicking on the number, a user can toggle between the three options. If the YTD state is selected, the card’s title gets an appendix “YTD”, which can be changed in the settings pane.
We added the Interaction group of settings to enable report designers to toggle key interactions On/Off. Some examples: show global toolbar, chart slider, resize and/or move cards, change variance calculations, and so on. Even if the user disables interactions on the items above, the whole card is clickable for filtering.
