In order to solve the problems associated with Power BI visuals that do not resize properly based on the resolution or the device being used, then consider the following approaches to ensure better display uniformity:
Utilize Responsive Design Settings: Power BI boasts responsive layout options, especially on the dashboard and report deck. Turn on the “Responsive” setting on visuals, e.g., charts, so that they resize and fit into the screen. This is critical, especially where visuals on a smaller screen need to be compressed so that there is more breath on the larger screen. This can be enabled in the Visualizations pane under “Format,” so ensure it is active for each visual.
Improve Page View and Optimizations: In the process of creating reports or dashboards, do not shy away from going for the “Fit to Width” Page View or “Fit to Height” Page View under the Power BI Desktop Launch. These techniques may help avoid scenarios where there are elasticities in visuals that cause the content to be out of the boundary or even beyond it. If you expect that certain reports will be opened on smaller devices, for example, tablets, it would be wise for you to design such a layout specifically for mobile devices. In Power BI Desktop, it is possible to create different layouts oriented for either mobile or tablet use, which can be found in the “View” tab and then accessed via “Phone Layout.”
Look for Visual Padding and Aligning: For example, visuals can be incorrectly aligned due to the excessive space between them or the way they are placed within the report. Modify the value of the padding, the border, and even alignment properties for each visual instead. It is also considerate to place all visuals in the appropriate areas within the grid, even to avoid putting many objects on the screen at the same grid level, as this helps for shifting screens of different sizes.
Test on Many Devices: Last but not least, test the report in detail across devices to check if it is rendered correctly on all of them. This includes desktops with varying screen resolutions, tablets, and phones. You can also use Power BI Service, which provides the option of previewing how reports appear on different devices so that you can correct any problems of poor display before the report is shared with the users.
For such reasons, it is possible to enhance the adaptability of power visuals so that the content is usable and stylistically pleasing on different devices.
